Museum of Memories
2024
site-specific art
laser-cut papers, lighting, shadow, sound, projection, screening

is an immersive installation that explores the impermanence of memory through sound, screening, light, and shadow. The first space features projected videos of old memories, representing moments from the past that can never be relived. Accompanied by sound, these projections create an atmosphere of nostalgia and reflection. In the second space, the phrase "everything became a memory" is laser-cut into paper in different tenses, languages, and fonts, symbolizing the emotional struggle of moving on and embracing the present. Lighting and shadows serve as a medium, with interactive elements allowing the audience to create shifting shadows that symbolize the layering of memories. This piece invites the audience to engage with their own memories, offering a space that honors the past while embracing the future.
