About The Artwork
The ongoing series "I Won't Forget You" uses photographs found in op shops, flea markets, and second-hand stores. I Carefully cut them and placed in contemporary compositions using color papers in order to make this original collage. Each piece is H30cm x W40cm and framed H40cm x W50cm. Following the arrangement shown in the picture, the whole series with frames is H120cm x W150cm. My core point is to extend the deep desire to be remembered, implicit in every single portrait. Inspired by the craft, hand-labor, and creative efforts developed during the XIX and XX centuries to enhance photographs as memory objects, I have spent time transforming these almost faded photographs into elaborated bright objects. By cutting, decorating, and arranging them into new compositions, full of intense colors, I am attempting to create a contemporary way to "not forget them".
