30 Memories of Porto
This work was created for the group exhibition Mnemosyne, at Galeria AL859, Porto, in October 2023. It was also show in the solo exhibition 'Objetos de Memória' in 2024.
30 pieces of cyanotype paper were used to build an origami icosahedron. This was exposed for one day (23rd June 2023) in Porto. All the papers were developed, giving 30 unique 'memories' of their experience that day.
These were then refolded into a new form, to play with the idea that everyone's memories of the same event differ slightly. Putting them all together gives us a completely different view of the original event.
Below are the original form and the 30 individual images prior to reconstruction.
