A years-long meditation on isolation, digitization, and the spiralling capacity of the image, lcr.i/2569/2015-2019 is an encounter with a virtual location: an alignment of conditions that encourages a free-fall into an oversaturated no-place, an “after-space,” from which to see over again. Here, bodies are an overwrought network of senses, signs, feelings, and gestures burdened and charged by (dis)connection.
An ongoing process which began as Aattitle (2015), lcr.i/2569/2015-2019 is a work invoking the id of the screen, soliciting n-er futures.
