Memoria olvido 2015

"Memoria olvido" (Memory of Oblivion) is a 2015 artwork by Francis Naranjo, an artist known for exploring memory and its relationship to light. This piece features two distinct scenes: a bright light illuminating a small object on a table in a dark room and a reading lamp, shining onto a collection of photographs. The stark contrast between light and darkness, and the way the light illuminates the photographs, suggests a poignant contemplation of memory and its potential to be lost. The title further emphasizes this theme of forgetting and the fragility of memory.
