About the exhibition

First Impressions connects Impressionism to digital animation. Pointillist textures meet Muybridge’s motion studies, forming loops that reimagine 19th-century experiments with light, color, and time. These works reflect how new technologies - from paint tubes, to camera shutters, and pixels - reshape both human perception, and thus, artistic practice.

This series grows from over a decade of mendezmendez's ongoing collage practice: remixing history, focusing on perception and the everyday. The animations are simple on the surface, yet rooted in defiance and experimentation; they form a dialogue across centuries between artists who sought to capture the fleeting, and his own search for a digital language that continues their work.
