ABOUT THE PROJECT

Dijital Junk is a publication comprised out of physical and digital collages constructed out

of metaphorical and literal trinkets. In an era saturated with imagery, it serves not as a

production of new visuals but as a curation of personal history. The artist views the act of

generating new images with hesitation, recognizing the overwhelming abundance already

in existence and the capability of AI to fill in the gaps. Instead, Dijital Junk dives into the

vivid archives of a life inadvertently documented—comprising phone snapshots,

undeveloped film strips, sketchbook pages, and handwritten notes. This publication is an

intimate, digital spring cleaning, an archaeological dig through the creator's own visual

footprint.

Video

Describing the project as both a confinement and a preservation, Dijital Junk is likened to

a zoo, where these snippets of personal history are both caged and cherished. The

collages, brimming with representational contradictions, are violent yet loving acts of

stapling and taping together disparate memories that resonate with their creator as well

as collective memory of the audience by mimicking cultural visual tropes. Each piece in

Digital Junk is a step toward understanding and valuing the potential of images amassed

over a lifetime, highlighting the now personal as potentially historical.
