THE MEMORY MACHINE

two-channel video installation, 25', stereo sound, 2025

In collaboration with the artist Joëlle Dubois, ‘The memory machine’ is a two-screen video installation centred around the loss of her mother to Alzheimers.

 

The installation creates an immersive, reflective environment, using vertical screens as sculptural elements to explore the tension between outward action and inward thought. 

 

One screen shows Joëlle performing repetitive ritualistic motions, evoking a trapped and desperate effort to connect—suggesting memory through physical gesture. The other screen turns inward, presenting fluid, dissolving images between memory and associative images, a mirror how the mind reconstructs memory. 

 

Ultimately, the work explores memory’s fragility, the struggle to hold on, and the quiet grief of its loss—especially in the context of conditions like Alzheimer’s—making memory feel both concreet and fleeting.
