Artist Statement
In this series of drawings, memories of the past events appear as a selective blend of what we are able to record and what we choose to remember. With the passage of time, what we recall is an inaccurate version of facts and details which have lost their context.
They are mere bits and pieces of trivia which define our personal version of history, which in turn, define our future.
