Metonymy is a moving image artwork by John Sanborn released a part of The Collective Attention collection.

The Collective Attention uses digitally realised rhetorical devices in order to exist beyond space and time, without need or meaning, to delight and hypnotise our subconscious.

"We turn to the end for the answer when it’s been with us all along. Each impression is a fresh harvest of intention, while each denial is concealed by ice."- John Sanborn

Created in collaboration with Collective Attention, founded by performers Jamielyn Duggan and Carolina Czechowska. Music composed by Edward Nelson.
