This work is an optical collage, a loop of images dissolving into each other in a combination of animated gestures. The name echoes mathematician Richard Bellman’s 1955 Forest Problem (“What is the best path to follow in order to escape a forest of known dimensions?”). Here the overlapping and intermingling of images fading in and out of each other seems to look for new propositions, the images follow segmented routes as if seeking out the best possible path to freedom.
