Forgetting
Exhibition Statement:
Step into my world after an epileptic episode, where memory dances on the edge of illusion and a warped reality seems true. These experiences have brought me face to face with the delicate threads of time and how memory can unravel or disappear altogether.
These experiences leave me questioning: What is existence if you can’t remember it? Where do those lost memories go?
In "Forgetting," I explore the transient nature of time, memory and existence. Through videos, collaged imagery, and an artist book, I offer the viewer an opportunity to experience a distorted reality that I often visit. With each episode, there are large holes in my memory with flashes of images or memories surfacing weeks later.
Along with video and imagery pieces, this show’s accompanying book stands as a tangible embodiment of my experience—a collection of textures, gaps, and imprints that echo the very essence of memory's ephemerality. As memory intertwines the past and present, my work weaves a narrative that asks viewers to confront the mysterious and ethereal nature of memory and the distorted experiences that create a person.
