Polaroids and its Discontents probes the tension between nostalgia and technological mediation. Polaroids, once symbols of fleeting intimacy, are resurrected through augmented reality, laying bare the fragility of memory and the instability of our narratives. By merging analog images with digital overlays—fractured sounds, archival fragments, ephemeral textures—the work disrupts the boundary between the Real and the Imaginary. The Polaroid becomes a paradox: a tangible object that transcends its materiality, confronting us with the dissonance between permanence and transience in an era dominated by impermanence. Far from being a mere aesthetic exercise, the series operates as an ideological critique. It poses unsettling questions: How does technology reshape our relationship with the past? Do we augment reality as an act of preservation, or as a form of escape? By intertwining tactile nostalgia with immersive virtuality, these works compel us to confront the void—the liminal space where memory dissolves, forgetting begins, and new realities are constructed.
