The story

What Is Engram About?

The premise of Engram without spoilers.

The three‑part work explores meta‑visual recursion, repeatedly nesting images within one another—photographs placed inside photographs, films embedded within films, stills inside moving pictures and moving pictures inside stills—and even positions a film director as a character within a television set, highlighting the self‑referential nature of media.
