COPY OF A COPY OF A (2022)
by reeta varpama
an exploration in endurance of process = play pretend copy repeat
child's play takes on elevated forms of (re)creation
a useless take in its original context survives
a repurposed window into the past
an editor's plight of a bad take
a viewer's question
why?
