Student Narrative
These are a pair of flip-books that depict dancing scenes from my childhood home videos. They deal with issues of memory, nostalgia, and ephemerality. I wanted to convey a sense of longing for a fleeting moment, and although we can flip through the pages and play it again, and again, it will never actually return.
