Living Time (Video)

2019, two-channel video

Memories haunt the characters of Living Time. For some, events are recalled, summoned by a simple gesture that effortlessly unites the spirit of the past with the physical body of the present. For others, memories have taken corporeal form, so tangible the body is locked in the past, and the spirit of the present made to bow to it. Through the intercutting of live-action footage and archival outtakes, Living Time explores different forms of recollection and remembrance and the nested temporalities that mark all of our lives.
