Interactive multimedia installation with marco borowski, 2023
exploring the mechanisms of memory loss and the impact trauma can have on this process.
The juxtaposition of two video works highlights two different types of lost memories: moments from Marco Borowski’s father's personal analog film archive—random snippets of his life in the Philippines that would have been forgotten if they had not been preserved on videotape—contrasted with an experimental video work by Anika Krbetschek, which represents the inner experience of dissociative amnesia. This work illustrates the fragmentation and loss of memories that are often too intrusive to be retained, leading to their separation from conscious awareness.
A lamella curtain further emphasizes the theme of fragmentation by dividing the projection into two layers. Visitors can interact with the curtain, allowing them to engage with the fragmentation mechanism themselves.
