Theatrum Mnemosynesview project ︎︎︎
This installation (2025) consists of plaster ornaments and collages that mimic architectural building plans. The shapes are based on images from historical medical books on pediatrics: photographs of deformities, lesions, microscopic views of cancer cells—images originally burdened with trauma, loss, and clinical detachment. Through processes of repetition, mirroring, and transformation—echoing the logic of ornament—I perform a kind of visual EMDR: softening and reassembling the images into a harmonious rythm.
Theatrum Mnemosynes refers to an imaginary theatre where life’s scars are reimagined as sources of beauty, resonance, and perhaps even consolation.
