Photography is often seen as a direct representation of reality. This assumption is challenged in the works by artists Esmée Bruins and Noah van de Wetering. In the exhibition, they show new works based on the (photographic) image as representation and memory. This is expressed in various materials and different techniques, in which the transformation of the image is always central. Both makers' approach to images stems from their education in photography. First look, then frame, and then print.

Two documents are gathered in an orange envelope that refers to the Archive of the Sound & Vision Institute. The depot consists of five stories fully covered in orange paint. The envelope is a meeting point for the archiving code, the title, and the number of the edition. The sample pack and the work are equal attempts at keepsake, holding onto memories that will lose context over time. As a whole underlining the mortality of the things we collect and questioning the immortality of the archive.

All of our memories are fragmented. We don’t truly recall the full experience of these moments but we link each fragment to another fragment to create a cohering memory. It’s only after critically looking at our full memories and noticing these (often visual) fragments that we’re able to truly look at the fragments by themselves. What do we see? Are these fragments like photographs, immovable and frozen in time?
