Fragments

Claudia Livia

At the heart of our human experience lies memory—a faculty that stores and resurrects our past and wisdom within the intricate labyrinth of our brains. These memories, far from resting neatly on mental shelves like library books, are instead intricate reconstructions, woven together from fragments dispersed throughout our minds. Enter “Fragments,” an interactive piece that endeavours to breathe life into the ethereal landscape of our memories. Step into the darkness, a symbolic representation of our subconscious memory space, where sensory cues become catalysts. As you traverse this enigmatic space, memories emerge, one by one, each evoked by your movements. Projected upon layers of transparent curtains suspended throughout the room, these memories coalesce into a captivating collage of images, forming a multidimensional tapestry that mirrors the intricacies of our recollections. The dark room is a canvas, our memories are fragments, and your footsteps are the threads that weave them together. In “Fragments,” we invite you to embark on a journey into the inner sanctum of memory, a space enlivened by sensory events and woven together by the profound connection between the past and the present. The memory fragments can come together to form a complete picture if there are enough people in the memory room. This shows how collective memory and personal truth are important for the creation of history.
