This project stems from the observation that consumption is being repackaged as a "visualised experience". The act of purchasing no longer ends with enjoyment but extends to the production of images. Consumers take photos and videos, edit them and upload them to social media, where these images circulate as proof of an "authentic lifestyle". Within this economy of visibility, what remains unseen are the traces that persist after the image fades: dust, stains, crumbs, and packaging fragments that silently register the passage of time. Therefore, Archive of Residue extends this trending phenomenon into a spatial practice.

Set within Borough Market, a site that has gradually shifted from a local trading space to a tourist landmark of "authentic experience". Here, consumption is both an everyday act and a social media presence; the market stalls become a landscape repeatedly captured, shared, and idealised.

The project aims to collect material remnants from Borough Market that reflect the area's state at a different time. By transferring their pattern onto layers of transparent film in a particular way. Finally, I plan to present a long translucent fabric printed with digitally processed residue, to examine how consumption is transformed into visual performance in social media culture.
