Eugen Bregu

I am a British/Albanian artist currently working and living in London. I am interested in the expression of emotions evoked by the memories and the relationships that we create with our past and present experiences. As we move through time what was once very familiar to us gets converted into a distant memory. As we lose closeness with an acquaintance the details fade away and only the core elements are preserved by our nostalgia. I would like my work to convey that very transfigurement and metamorphosis that time imposes on our memories of people, places and experiences.

Verses by T.S. Elliot (BUIRNT NORTON) have become the synopsis and the inspiration of my work:

Time present and time past"¨
Are both perhaps present in time future,"¨
And time future contained in time past.
