Mnemosyne

In ancient Greece, there was one of the entrances to the Underworld. Before entering it was necessary to drink from two fountains:Lete (forgetfulness) and Mnemosyne,which allowed you to remember what you would see in the afterlife. These works are inspired by Mnemosyne as they represent memories; a series of memories that, as often happens in life, we would like to forget.But forgetting, especially some memories, is often impossible. Psychological techniques teach us to bring a different level of consciousness to these memories, so to transform them into something with which it is possible to coexist. In the same way, the presented paintings are first completed then kind of erased as to transform them is something else.
