Installation

The Unbinding presents a world made up of fragments of archived images. Conceived in the form of an installation, this stereoscopic video work reveals a figure whose face, hands and hair change with each of her movements, never leaving what is a constantly reconfiguring loop. Inspired by Cubist portraits, Surrealist collages, Philip K. Dick’s “scramble suit” and time loops or time machines, this work offers an allegory of our everyday activities of appropriation and sampling. It raises the question of how we construct our own worlds through different media.
