What Cannot Be Erased
mixed media installation
This exhibition is a poignant exploration of memory, grief, and endurance, assembled in profound dialogue with the legacy of Day Without Art. Drawing on a richly layered aesthetic, the work employs found objects, archival photographs, fabric, and video to evoke the fragmented yet persistent nature of collective memory, particularly as it relates to the early years of the AIDS crisis and the cultural response that followed. The installation resists linear narratives, instead inviting viewers to navigate a terrain of loss — spaces where absence is both palpable and charged with meaning.
