I Forbid You to Foget Me Personal
The series investigates two contradictory urges: the archival urge to reflect upon the past and the conceptualist urge to bend the process of reflection toward the practice of contemplating. The collage method is intended to create tangible pieces that mirror the weight of grief.
Through collage, I create physical objects that hold the weight of grief. Almost all materials are sourced from my family archive and transformed through various processes: embroidering my mother’s words onto photographs, pairing her portraits with objects she left behind, transferring images onto fabric, and freezing photographs in ice to create works that embody memory’s fragility and permanence.
