Berlin and Barcelona, 2011 / color, analog

When I think about ´love´, there are pieces of memories.
While I love, I also remember these pieces.
Smells, voices, gestures, mood, gazes, talks, smiles, laughs, cries…
Not only when I love someone, but also the moment.
And then these pieces are overlapped.
It´s like a collage of impressions.

Die Aufeinander gelegte Zeit(The overlapped Time)

2014, Germany

Essay Video with Paintings

12 Min, 3 Channels

Voices:

Part 1 – Marcelo Bourdieu, Charo Repetto Ferrari, Karina Repetto, Fabiana Zander Repetto
Part 2 – Choonna Kim, Jongseok Kim, Saerom Kim

Concept:

When you look at photos, you feel the temporal area. The moment in which one snaps, is only a moment, but you imagine that this moment in time making waves as the circle that is formed when you throw a pebble into a lake. Memories of the past time are recalled.

The video „The overlapped time“ has been overlapped not only by the photos and pictures but also by sounds. The first part is of the Uruguayan family with color images. They tell about their beautiful moments in the past. The second part is of my family with black & white images. They sent to me letters with their voices and told about their beautiful moments in their life when I war born, before my grand mother has died and so on.

The voices are divided left and right by stereo channel. You can follow the voices with the each script in video from other channel. The script is written in English.
