Countless Lives

° Durational Performance °

¬ 2019 - 2023 ¬

Durational, participatory, audio-visual performance installation. 

A living collage in constant formation. Layers accumulate and shift over time, continuously reshaping the image of the present. I create a layered video image in collaboration with the audience,  using my own body, and cameras to enact a live video layering process of recording and projection.

A body moves in one long, slow gesture, captured on camera and projected back onto itself. The process is repeated. Over time, layers build into a palimpsest: earlier traces degrade yet remain visible, while subtle audience interventions alter the composition as it unfolds.

Time, repetition and feedback function as visual and conceptual material. The work sits between documentation and presence, exploring how memory settles in the body and how identity is shaped by traces of what has already passed.
