R.A.P.I.D
video & installation, mixed-media, 6:28, 2022
R.A.P.I.D is an installation comprising a hanging printed sculpture, video, and a spatial environment. It traces the speculative memories and cognitive slippages that occur when drifting, contextless images infiltrate our perception. The work assembles its own recordings alongside time-expired and decommissioned footage, memes, news fragments, and other found images that have been entirely disconnected from their original functions. It explores how the continuous decay and reappearance of these visual fragments disrupt our cognitive structures and generate new, phantom-like narratives within entangled digital and material ecologies. Through this continual rearrangement of what has already been used, discarded, or forgotten, It explores how fragmented memories and fleeting sensations linger and evaporate, investigating the increasingly fluid and disjointed nature of our reality and how online traces interlace to produce shifting grounds of meaning and fluid modes of existence.
