Weaving Memories is an art exhibition that showcases the works of four artists: Gonzalo Reyes Araos (CL), Vanessa Enriquez (MX), Grapebattleships (CHN), and Dr. Anna Talens (ES). The exhibition aims to explore the complexity and diversity of memory and provoke deep reflection on individual memories. Through interactive displays of paintings, textiles, installations, and other works, the artists delve into the subjective and authentic nature of memory and its influence on our individual and social identities.
The exhibition also delves into the preservation and alteration of memory. The artists utilize digital, technological, and media tools to demonstrate the malleability and fragility of memory. They challenge the stability of memory, encouraging viewers to contemplate the authenticity and misleading nature of personal and collective memories. The artworks explore how memory is shaped by external factors and social influences and how it is preserved, transmitted, and transformed.
