1001 Accurate Memories
Plural Studio (2025)
1001 Accurate Memories represents a seven year odyssey birthed from an artist’s blood, guts and tears. A series of insights into class, disability and trauma are presented with drawings, sketches and photographs. Having lived in Berlin for 14 years, the author has developed a critical view of Germany and its 'memory culture'. His investigation of traumatic memory leads to the proposal that today's Germany, which professes to be actively committed to ‘memory culture’, develops this approach to one of ‘traumatic memory culture’ - insofar as traumatic memories are often more precise than those of everyday, non-traumatic experiences.
1001 Accurate Memories contains a large series of drawings exhibited during the artist’s solo show WORK TAP at Centrespace Gallery, Bristol, UK in 2024.
