Phase paintings (The natural flow of forgetting) is a series that delves into the notions of time and movement, or rather, movement in time. Every painting depicts two instances that when overlapped and translated into visual terms generate a third moment of difference, interference and disruption. The discrepancy of the image is no other than the visibilization of the passing of time, and along with it, the memory, perception and the trace that leaves behind. The image evidences both the presence and the absence of a representation within the span of a millisecond.
