goodbye friend
Video, PrintInspiration & Concept: This series is a deeper exploration of human connections and the disintegration of memory. It was conceived as an intimate, collaborative experiment with a dozen friends. The core idea was to capture a moment of stillness, knowing that the resulting content would be a visual extrapolation and intentional metaphor for personal detachment and the erosion of relationships over time.
Process & Technique: The process began with the subject's video portrait, where each sits still for a minute and a half. The file is then intentionally corrupted using changes in movement within the video. This distortion amplifies the subjects' slightest movements – subtle gestures become catalysts for a complete and beautiful visual breakdown, turning a static portrait into an broken or flowing cascade of color and form.
Message & Meaning: emotional detachment, fading of memories, inevitable loss
