Our memories not only often manifest in the form of images but also become our memories through the images themselves, even dominating all our thoughts and observations in life.
The images in motion, when they enter our field of vision, do not emphasize inner depth nor become deeply ingrained in our memory. They pursue becoming a ubiquitous configuration scattered throughout the entire work, characterized by both low fidelity and easy distortion, loss, and blurring. These images seek to be encountered as a cohesive event within the whole. As embodiments of Hypomnesic Memory, they often create vague remnants in the viewer's mind at some unconscious moment during the viewing.
When memories are presented in the form of images, they gradually shape the viewer's memory, attempting to layer or converse with the viewer's existing personal memories. In the end, motion images are not only composed of images but also a desire for memory expression. Memory and images form an endless loop, always coming at us like fragments and flashing by.
As a creator of motion images, when crafting these images, a memory narrative is simultaneously provided. Images are collected, reorganized, or arranged to generate differences or similarities, frame by frame, flowing images that string together into a dynamic narrative of memory through motion images.
Therefore, the production techniques of motion images are also the techniques of creating memories, and the concept of Hypomnesic Memory is how memories are touched and viewed in the form of fragile silhouettes. If an image represents a form of low-loss memory, after experiencing the impact of motion images, viewers will inevitably revisit those seemingly untraceable images that once brushed past their lives in the subtleties.
