“No recollection is without consequence, and we may act on
our memories. Why we feel compelled, seduced or persuaded to
act on this memory rather than some other almost always
remains mysterious.” Victor Burgin, The Remembered Film.
Measuring Spatial Amnesia
is a photographic recreation and a discovery of an abstract
childhood landscape, serving as an antidote to fragmented
autobiographical memory. 16 landscape works are pictorial
documentation from a mental journey. The color palette is
derived from the color atlas of body fluids, mixing dark red
hemoglobin with green biliverdin, orange bilirubin, yellow
urobilin, and brown stercobilin, giving the landscape its
colors. It is a project that connects fragmented memories with a
more corporeal memory.
The works are digital collages and manipulations of appropriated
images. In the work process, there is a breakdown of the
landscape elements and a manipulation and distortion of the
landscape's perspective and dimensions. All works are created
using the same blank template. The horizon is centered, and each
image can seamlessly connect with the next, creating an unbroken
horizon and timeline. The works are topographical illusions with
a flexible and changeable narrative.

Foundation and Grosserer L. F. Foghts Foundation.
