"We are swamped with images and information about the past and its recent catastrophes - but there is also a growing incapacity to engage with these traces in ways which move beyond them, in the interest of a common future. Amid the mass amnesia sustained by the culture of global capitalism, images have become one of the many depleted and disposable elements that, in their intrinsic archiveability, end up never being discarded, contributing to an ever more congealed and futureless present"
