A few words about the project:
FallenMemories, Athens, 2023
A photograph captures a moment by preserving it in time. It imprisons the image and keeps it eternally alive, preventing its decomposition within the human mind. But the paper is perishable. It can be burned or torn and thus the image it represents is lost or transformed. Project using mixed media, between digital file and hand-damaged paper, creates an intermediate space between the wear and tear of human memories.
