Variations

the transformation and material life of a single photographic image

Variations centers around one photographic image, unfolding through a series of scroll prints and publications with unique copies.

The explorations delve into the mutability of memory and images, with each print as a unique iteration of an ever-changing image. Through manual reproduction and manipulation, the image shifts, distorts, and reshapes the original.

To look at a thousand images a thousand times through one image. To see it again and again until it is no longer the image. To recall memories repeatedly until they become something new.
