In Thomas Eggerer's own words, these collages highlight his appreciation for the “breathtaking treasures” visual archives hold, from intimate locker room moments to sunbathers in sports arenas. His collages transform these ordinary scenes into complex compositions that resist immediate consumption. They often feature a “stuttering” effect, as described by David Joselit, where similar actions or groups appear from different angles or moments in time, creating a cinematic layering that compresses successive images into a single, simultaneous visual experience.
