"Ken Je Me Nog?" is a powerful and poignant exploration of memory loss and the pressures facing this generation. Using black and white, analogue photography, I capture the fragility of memory and the fleeting nature of time.
The title of
my
project, which translates to "Do you remember me?" in English, speaks to the central theme of memory loss. Through
my
images, I ask the viewer to consider the impact of losing memories, both on an individual and a societal level. In addition to exploring memory loss,
my
project also touches on the pressure placed on this generation to succeed. The images reflect the stress and strain that many people feel in the face of high expectations and intense competition.
The collages I create from
my
photos add an extra layer of meaning to
my
work, creating a sense of fragmentation and disorientation that echoes the experience of memory loss. The contrast of images also highlights the contrast between the past and the present, and the way memories can become distorted over time. Overall, "Ken Je Me Nog?" is a thought-provoking and emotionally resonant project. Through
my
images, I draw attention to important issues and encourage the viewer to reflect on the significance of memory, both in our personal lives and in the wider world.
