YOU ARE WHAT YOU SEE
four beamers, four gif-loops
The gif loops respectively show every picture I collected in a day, week, month and year in 2014. The more layers in a gif, the smaller the hole, the last one having 946 layers, which is every image I collected that year. At first I had to make the hole smaller for practical reasons; as the number of layers increased, I had to manage the size of the gif-file by covering up more of the image surface. Once I had done this, the shrinking hole became a representation of how the memory focuses on details to remember hundreds of impressions, which is what I try to do with all the images I collect.
