Ghosting (Multiples n.20) by mounir fatmi
"Ghosting" is the multiple n.20 of the artist mounir fatmi. It was made in 2017 and limited to 100 editions. The multiple is composed of a book, 6 photographs, and some film extracts, 25 x 18.5 cm.
"Ghosting" converges literature, visual arts, and film to explore the intricate dynamics of media images and their societal resonance. The obsolete video cassettes symbolize a tidal wave of potential images rendered as pale copies or ghosts. Through luminous calligraphy and a spectacular amalgamation of audio-visual and bureaucratic elements, "Ghosting" reflects on the obsolescence of interactivity in the digital age, urging contemplation on the instantaneous transmission of images and information in our increasingly spectacle-driven society.
