Alfred Rollitt’s work explores the unstable threshold between perception and mediation — the wayfilm doesn’t simply reflect reality, but actively reshapes it. In a culture oversaturated with images,his practice asks what happens when vision itself begins to blur: when the apparatus of seeinginfects what is seen.Rooted in the language of early digital cameras, home video, and the physicality of analogueediting, Rollitt’s films are constructed from fragments — raw footage, repetitive gestures, momentsthat feel both intimate and detached. Often handheld and narratively sparse, they occupy adreamlike, liminal space where memory, sensory experience, and media collapse into one another.
