Animation as Reconstruction

Animation functions here as a method of revelation, a way of making visible what cannot be directly observed. Through processes of layering, erasure, and transformation, these works reconstruct lost histories, invisible temporal processes, or subjective perceptions, making present what cannot exist in the real world: the absent, the abstract, and the otherwise intangible.
