Denial of Nostalgia explores the introspective journey of self-discovery through the personal meaning
we assign to our belongings and the sentimental value shaped by the shared history we unconsciously
attribute to them. It examines how personal belongings intertwine with memories, identity, and a sense
of self, reflecting on how objects once central to our identity through memory association might
evolve or dissolve in significance as we redefine ourselves over time.
This process highlights the role of souvenirs as tangible links to experiences, acting as anchors that
reconnect us to the emotions and memories of particular journeys.
Through a collage-like presentation of still-life photos of objects and model portraits, the concept
navigates the inner conflict of man versus self, encapsulating the mental battles endured in the
process of immigration and adaptation. It speaks to the necessity of letting go - of being “forced to
forget in order to move forward”, with themes of concealment and suppression visually represented by
objects wrapped and covered, symbolizing the tension between remembering and moving on.
