Recollection translates everyday objects and furniture into archetypal forms, stripping them of personal specificity to explore how meaning persists when memory is abstracted. By using unconventional materials — wood, clay, steel, wax, cardboard, and fabric — I recontextualize familiar forms, inviting viewers to recognize them through collective experience rather than personal narrative.
The work examines the tension between familiarity and abstraction, challenging the viewer to navigate memory, scale, and materiality simultaneously. Life-sized forms encourage bodily engagement, transforming perception of space and prompting reflection on how shared human experience is encoded in objects.
