As part of the exhibition, I am rethinking the participatory project created in 2021 "Common Memory. An act of remembrance". Here shared knowledge filled the gaps in personal history, and personal knowledge shed light on collective experience. This project is so close to me, because this method is built from my autobiographical story. Today I want to talk about him, because now we are once again deciding what to do with the traces of war and genocide. We, once united by a silent agreement to hide and erase traces of pain and loss, are learning to speak.

Exhibition duration: 30.05. - 04.08. 2024
