Physical memory is taken for granted. In a flash, it can disappear. The artist learned to archive from her grandmother, who was a hoarder of memory. Displaced from Yafa in 1948, her house targeted in 1982 in Beirut, the old lady kept a table of memories in the living room in that same house; a physical testament to the people she could not hold on to. Nearly one year ago, the table brutally disappeared in a target explosion at 1 am, on October 1, 2024. By erasing the carved drawing, just as the table, the first print can no longer be.
