Using the traditional materials and methods of drawing, Karolina Glusiec pays homage to the early days of filmmaking and the photographic experiments produced by Étienne-Jules Marey. Through a process of sketching and erasure, Glusiec’s film explores the idea of disappearance through both forgotten memory and the repetitive movements of the microscopic. Glusiec interrogates the contemporary, networked nature of images that are 'surrounding us, circulating, duplicating, being manipulated and used many times until the image disappears forever.'

Drawings on paper, filmed using 16mm, before being captured using a digital stills camera.
