Imprint of a Gaze
Rush
In the works Imprint of a Gaze and Rush, I explore the experience of contemporary perception as a multilayered and unstable process. The first piece, composed of images from Israel, the USA, and Kyrgyzstan, reflects on the fluidity of human presence: faces and gazes turn into an overlapping stream, where each fragment is simultaneously preserved and dissolved, echoing the ephemeral nature of information circulating in the digital sphere. The second work, merging New York, Tbilisi, and St. Petersburg, translates this principle into the urban environment. Here, the city itself appears as a living organism, blurred by velocity, data flows, advertising screens, and architectural layers.
Together, the two works form a diptych about the fragility of fixation and the illusion of stability. People and cities are equally drawn into a rhythm where each moment is only a temporal slice, vanishing into the next. Thus, the human and the urban are bound by the same logic of “passing information,” which exists not as a stable form but as a continuous overlay and disappearance.
