During our Senior Exhibition, each team had a reality to focus on. My team decided to focus on memory. My focus when creating my world was visualizing what the memories looked like as they were fading away when you donated them to the government’s memory bank. I used the memory bank as a form of escape for people to give memories they don’t want away. This would create an empty space in the person’s mind, where their memory is fighting to stay and have them remember.
The reason I took my reality in this direction was because I liked the idea of focusing solely on the memories fading rather than anything to do with collecting them. I wanted the person viewing the work to see it as their memory talking to them and asking for them to remember.
