This work is to explore the static performance of memory in dynamic time. My friend is the protagonist in the photo, and what is recorded is a conversation between me and her about memory. This is the memory of a conversation between me and her from my viewpoint, the expression and documentation of the memory in the present time. For her, it is the experience she recalled in the past, and the memories that happened in the past are recorded through her facial expressions. The feelings you have when you see this work are memories that happened in the future.

Research and critical reflection
I identify and discuss the core ideas that underpin your studio practise and develop a critical discourse about these ideas supported
by relevant contexts (from research resources such as books, journals, exhibition catalogues, public lectures, podcasts, online resources etc.).
You should also include critical reflection on developments in your practical work and consider how your choices of materials
and processes reflect
or express your ideas
or help to extend your understanding of your subject or, indeed, suggest new directions for your research.
Include illustrations.
