STATEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The past is one of the most essential building blocks to one\u2019s character, yet memory is a highly complex concept. Over time, one\u2019s memory of specific instances can be distorted, recreated and combined with others to create new experiences. The influence from the memories of others can also affect the way one recalls their own experiences. This exaggeration of memories is the primary focus of my work. To me, memory is an ever-evolving aspect of our minds\u2014 each moment existing in the shadow of the subsequent one. It is a fragile and decaying, yet beautiful and delicate part of the unconscious that I sought to explore. The work can be described as \u201cnostalgic\u201d and ephemeral as the pieces stand as fragments that influence this modified experience that the viewer can develop and relate to their own. The goal of the work is to borrow aspects from the memory of other\u2019s, mold them into my own and fabricate new ones for others to borrow from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
