Camilla Mileto

Memory and fragments, memories and relationships. Fragments that are facts, sensations and feelings. Relationships that are experiences, unions and traumas. Human beings build their memory based on fragments and relationships between them. And on the memory of a past built by relationships between fragments of lived, imagined, and felt events, it builds its present and projects its future. The material and technique are ancestral, the colour is surreal, the fragments and relationships are remains and discards recycled from other disassembled objects that build something new. The sensation is of fragility and lightness like the memory of the human being that lasts a breath and is easily broken.
