Fragments of Memory III

Fragments of Memory III

Layers of Time and Fading Truth

Fragments of Memory III explores how time softens truth and reshapes memory. Crafted from bleached, torn, and reconstructed denim, the work mirrors the quiet erosion of what we once knew — revealing instead the beauty of what remains, what fades, and what transforms.

Through layers of white pigment and altered denim, the piece reflects how memories shift — sometimes softened, sometimes distorted, yet always revealing a landscape shaped by time. The subtle white overlay symbolizes both the erosion of truth and the quiet grace of forgetting.

These fragments form a visual diary — a quiet topography of layered stories, fading impressions, and the delicate balance between what we remember and what is gently lost.

Through this series, I invite viewers to consider their own passages — the hills they have climbed, the efforts m...
