Forgotten Memories Series

Ian Andrews

Consider a film or video in which an artist explores certain memories through images of their past. Or consider a documentary, which interprets historical images of notable subjects. Then consider a film in which the images bear no such relations to either the filmmaker or to history as such but, at the same time, depict significant (perhaps) moments in some unknown persons life. What happens to our interpretation here as the images drift, dislocated from any historical or authorial reference? After the images loop a number of times will we inject them with our own stories?
