Consider is an analog, imageless film that critiques the distorted portrayal of war in television media, focusing on the contrast between the harsh reality of the Gaza genocide and its televised representation, as observed from afar by the artist in Brazil. Through a series of physical perforations in the film, each puncture allows light to pass through, symbolizing the martyred civilians of Gaza. These points of light resemble distant stars—numerous, yet beyond full human comprehension— conveying both the vastness of the loss and the inadequacy of televised images to capture its true scale. The film challenges the reduction of these lives to mere statistics, urging the viewer to engage with the martyrs as luminous presences, while recognizing that the full reality of this ongoing genocide remains beyond the capacity of visual representation.
