BEGINNING OF THE MEMORY

P1400057.jpg

"Beginning of the Memory" is a multi-layered installation project currently in its early stages. This page is dedicated to documenting the creation of various element that will eventually shape the content of this installation.

At the core of this project is the production of approximately 20,000 small clay casts, modeled from late 19th-century brass molds originally used to produce gold and silver ornaments. These pieces of jewelry were traditionally worn during religious ceremonies or blessed for such occasions.

The project also incorporates various woodcut prints, many of which feature Gujarati text. For example, the phrase depicted above translates to "Whose Triangle." I'm exploring the multiple meanings that arise from seemingly ordinary sounds in everyday language, seeking to discover an inquisitive and reflective language through this process.
