Erasers

Anna Gaskell’s short video is a meditation on the mercurial nature of memory. In Erasers, a diverse group of young women from a junior high school in New York are filmed recounting the same narrative—a child’s memory of a tragic car accident that kills her mother. This is a true story from the artist’s life, which she told to the girls a week before filming them.
