Description: | I exhibited four paintings in the Flux of Memory exhibition at The Handbag Factory. The exhibition was curated by Vaishali Prazmari and Jumpei Kinoshita. Memory is fluid—shifting, elusive, and ever-changing. The Flux of Memory brings together six artists exploring the instability of recollection, scenes half-remembered and moments lost in time through diverse perspectives. Gianinna Delpino’s work captures the fleeting nature of time, balancing the nearness and distance of memory, place, and possibility. Shiba Hideatsu explores humanity’s relationship with nature, questioning how we perceive, use, and find meaning in its enduring mystery. Jumpei Kinoshita’s work invites viewers to reflect on the enduring bonds with loved ones and dogs, evoking nostalgia and warmth while celebrating love and the unspoken connections of canine companions. Raksha Patel’s paintings weave together fragmented migrant memories, decayed industrial landscapes, forgotten lace and peacock calls. She uses archival photographs to question ideas of value within an arena of cultural duality. Raúl Pina Perez blends vibrant symbolism and philosophy into visual poems, transforming shifting recollections into layered, totemic forms. Vaishali Prazmari resurrects the lost heyday of the obsolete Chinese typewriter, using brass rubbings of its keys to preserve a machine that briefly thrived before vanishing. Together, these artists navigate the slippery and elusive nature of memory—what fades, what lingers, and what takes on new forms in the act of remembering. Exhibiting Artists: |
