Ars longa vita brevis - curated by Raffaella Nobili

A curation by Raffaella Nobili, Owner and curator at Paraventi Giapponesi - From the perspective of cognitive psychology, memory is a dynamic process: every time a memory resurfaces, it changes. Paul Ricoeur tells us: memory has a narrative nature, we remember by reconstructing. The past isn't simply preserved; it's reinterpreted every time we touch it. In this selection, memory takes different forms, because each of us inhabits the past differently. Each work is an act of resistance to oblivion.
