About this exposition

"Ephemeral Traces" is an interactive performance and art installation that explores the temporal nature of visual perception through the manipulation of the scanning process. Challenging the conventional notion of time in photography, the artist employs a scanner as an artistic tool, generating visual "timelines" that capture the fleeting essence of the present moment. By intervening in the scanning process, the artist distorts time, stretching, compressing, and fragmenting everyday objects into ephemeral traces of light and form. These temporal distortions are projected in real-time onto a white wall, transforming it into a dynamic canvas. Accompanied by a carefully curated soundtrack, the projected images create an immersive aesthetic experience that invites viewers to contemplate the fluidity of time and its impact on our understanding of reality. "Ephemeral Traces" seeks to engage the viewer in a dialogue about the ephemeral nature of time, the role of technology in shaping our perception, and the artistic potential of the mundane. Through the interplay of light, sound, and movement, the project offers a unique and evocative exploration of the fleeting moments that constitute our lives.
