After Image

After Image is a project that explores how personal memory is distorted and reconstructed in the digital age.
Memory is no longer a fixed record. Algorithms curate our pasts, and images and data are revived as forms of emotion. But are these memories always accurate, or do they become increasingly unfamiliar?

This work reconstructs memories as digitised sculptures based on photographs of personal objects collected through user research and places them within an augmented reality (AR) environment, presenting both the physicality and the potential distortion of memory.

In the AR space, the 3D objects first appear semi-transparent and fragmented, flickering with digital noise to reflect their altered and unstable digital state. As viewers approach, observe closely, and interact by grabbing these objects, the forms begin to shift and gradually resolve into their original, tangible shapes. This transformation symbolizes how engagement with memory can retrieve and restore the authentic essence hidden beneath digital distortion.

Viewers engage directly with these mutable objects—observing, touching, and grasping them—experiencing the dynamic relationship between memory’s distortion and retrieval in a digital context.

This is not a simple act of recollection, but an exploration of how memory is reconstructed and sensorially experienced through digital media.

After Image questions not only how we remember, but also how we are remembered in digital spaces, capturing moments where emotion, technology, and memory blur their boundaries.
