synopsis

A visual illustration of the process of remembering, when the mind associates the image of an object with similar images based on the person’s mental organization. These are more a reflection of his identity than an imprint of real things and events.

“I’m interested in creating works that exist as experience themselves. I consider it necessary to implement the sensitive, the sensual, the experiential into the artwork: to appeal to an erotic of artwork.” G. E. Veloso

biography

Gonzalo E. Veloso (1985) studied creative documentary film at university in Barcelona. His meditative films often en explore the passage of time and the impossibility of freezing the moment. He tries  to capture his surroundings, whether people or nature, but he sees reality as merely a subjective construct of our senses. By layering images over one another, he achieves an effect resembling the impermanence of memory. The Ji.hlava IDFF previously showed his film Trees (2015).
