In 1882, French scientist 脡tienne-Jules Marey invented the chronophotographic gun, an early example
of a moving-image camera. The inventor鈥檚 films recorded humans and animals in motion. Overlapping stills revealed new ways to measure various gestures by freezing different phases of movement. Min Jeong Song鈥檚 The In-between Moments: Homage to E.J. Marey explores the seemingly empty space between two complete actions. The 3D printed sculpture presents perpetual and ephemeral moments seen through kinetic illusion. Light passes through transparent surfaces, before refracting to virtually animate hidden depictions.
