This project explores the disappearance of childhood memories of nature due to climate change. Inspired by Shifting Baseline Syndrome and Selective Forgetting, we visualise how different generations perceive the same environment through layers of memory, texture, and loss.
To visualise this fading memory, we use printmaking techniques - lithography to create fragmented images of nature, representing landscapes that are slowly disappearing. We experiment with printing on different fabrics to explore how textures and transparencies affect the perception of memory. After selecting the most effective materials, we digitally enhance the images and transfer them onto larger fabrics using UV printing.
We construct a multi-layered hanging installation that invites viewers to walk through fragmented memories of trees, rivers, grass, and sky-elements of nature that have gradually disappeared or transformed over time.
