In Pieces, We Remember

This project explores how humans confront “disappearance.” While life and time cannot truly be preserved, we continually attempt to retain fragments of them. The work unfolds through four approaches: knowledge, materiality, imagery, and taste. Torn and reconstructed book pages symbolize the absorption and transformative power of knowledge; objects carry traces of time; images extend fleeting moments and memory; and taste evokes and deepens recollection through repetition. Together, these works suggest a process of transformation, in which what is vanishing is reconfigured into forms that can endure.
