Entering the installation, the viewer is first disoriented by excess and absence simultaneously. A wall-sized projection bathes the room in skin tones rendered with surgical fidelity. The bride’s face alternates between intimate close-up and fractured montage; eyes blink, lips part, but continuity is interrupted: seams appear where brushstrokes of light meet raw footage, where archival frames collapse into live capture. Sound is deliberately spare — a low hum, fabric shifting, breath amplified — insisting that the body is an instrument of time as much as of identity.
