"Nightcall" is a series of prints made using the aquatint technique. Each image takes the form of a subtitle, evoking the shared imaginary of moving images and the immediacy of screenshots. Drawing on a traditional indirect etching technique, the series explores the relationship between image, text, and visual memory, translating fragments of contemporary language into a slow, layered form of reproduction. Isolated from the narrative flow and rendered static on the printed surface, the subtitle becomes an ambiguous trace: a voice without a body, a fragment of dialogue, or the remnant of a scene we never see.
