A fleeting presence moves through fragmented images, never fully revealed. Figures, objects and traces suggest what remains after a passage. Shot on a JVC camcorder, then printed and scanned, the images become unstable, suspended between memory and loss.
I thought I saw an angel.
The project explores the instability of perception and memory through a sequence of fragmented images. A female presence appears and disappears, never fully revealed blurred, reflected, or dissolved in light.
Alongside this presence, objects and forms become traces of what remains: signs of a passage, fragments that suggest something that has been left behind or forgotten.
The images are shot with a JVC camcorder, whose visual quality introduces blur, noise and loss of definition. They are then printed on A4 paper and scanned again, adding another layer of transformation and distance.
This process becomes part of the work: an accumulation of mediations that separates the image from direct experience, turning it into something fragile and unstable.
What emerges is not a linear narrative, but a constellation of moments an attempt to hold onto something that continuously escapes, leaving only traces of a presence that cannot be fully grasped.
