Caline Aoun’s works, collectively titled Residual Entropy, delve into the tension between obsolescence and transformation, exploring the hybridization of digital and analog processes in an era where traditional printing is in decline. Using an experimental digital transfer film designed to merge digital printing technology with darkroom techniques, Aoun acts as both artist and investigator, treating the material as a prototype to uncover its latent, unintended possibilities. The prints emerge through the continual feeding of this film into a printer worn down by relentless, exhaustive use. The process embraces the printer's malfunctions and "tiredness," turning these technological flaws into a language of expressive potential. The resulting works evoke a sense of nostalgia, their surfaces resembling the grainy interference of an old television screen or the fading textures of a bygone photograph.
