Translated Series
Thais revisited the photographic documentation of the Retellings and Scripts series (2019, 2020) for this series of digital compositions. Made using pixels in the place of ink and acrylic, Translated depicts the erosion, distortion, and transformation of information, a process accelerated in a digital landscape. Each composition in this series is derived from an artwork made by hand and is in dialogue with its predecessor: they are images translated across media and across years. The Translated series was printed by Atelier Esope on museum natural rag cotton in Chamonix Mont Blanc, France; every print is a detailed and richly saturated tableau.
