Latency examines images that exist in states of transition, suspension, and incomplete visibility. Rather than altering or reconstructing their source material, these works focus on conditions that are already present yet frequently overlooked, revealing structures, intervals, and relationships that remain latent within the image itself.

The projects presented here investigate moments that occupy an uncertain position between appearance and disappearance, memory and anticipation, presence and absence. Meaning emerges not through intervention, but through sustained attention to what is already there.

Cinematic Still Works utilizes scanned 35mm film segments that have been screened in cinemas throughout the world. Each image is derived from a moment of transition within a film and reproduced at large scale, including the scratches, dust, and wear accumulated through projection. Presented as they pass through the projector—upside down and reversed—the works foreground the material conditions of cinematic experience.

Each image contains two frames separated by a black interval. One image is departing, another is about to arrive. The space between them occupies a brief but persistent threshold, a liminal condition in which memory and anticipation coexist.

The works draw in part from Carlo Rovelli's proposition that the present may be understood as the interval between memory and anticipation. Within these images, the black space separating one frame from the next becomes a visual analogue for that condition: a fleeting threshold through which every cinematic image must pass.
