Memory is the window through which we observe fleeting moments like fragile, drifting clouds. The essay film Mist explores the interrelation between memory within immediate experience and the neural mechanics of sight. Drawing on the physics of light and the physiology of the eye, the film reflects on how perception operates as both a biological and mnemonic act. It traces the shifting thresholds between seeing and remembering; vision here is not a neutral act of observation but a process of translation where images sediment, dissolve, and reemerge as reconstructions.
