"Memory Portal" is an installation that bridges the gap between my current place of residence and the cherished memories of my hometown. This project is a personal exploration of the power of nostalgia and the way in which physical spaces can serve as conduits for emotional connection.
​
Using a 120 x 60 cm mirror as a canvas to hold the vivid imagery of a park in Mexico City, "Parque México." transformed into a canvas that reflects not just my image, but also the imagery of a park in Mexico City, This space from my past is superimposed upon a park in Paris, "Parc Montsouris," where I now reside. Through this merging of places and times, I aim to create a visual dialogue that transcends geographical boundaries and temporal constraints.
​
This installation invites viewers to step through the looking glass and into a world where memories are rekindled and the boundaries between past and present blur.
​
In the symphony of memory, specific stimuli are the notes that trigger memories, turning simple moments into portals that transport us to the past.
