Overwrite, 2023
Single-channel digital video, sound

Overwrite is a single-channel site-specific digital video work that explores how historical memory is enmeshed into landscapes, architecture, and objects. It questions our relationship with these elements and our responsibilities when entering a new space, inviting the viewer to reflect on how our actions can alter, erase, or rewrite their identity. When does overwriting become deleting? How can we co-write with our surrounding environment?
This video was realized while on an artist residency at the former Philips Factory of Roermond, The Netherlands.
Thanks to Stiching Destinaion Unknown for making it possible.
