Description
Wearable narrative fragment, created in February 2021. Hand embroidery on cotton tape with mother-of-pearl buttons, 85×2 cm. Housed in a small jewelry box from the United States, lined with a piece of shroud cloth, 10×7.5×3 cm.
The Memorious is part of the series Tiny Mobile Territories, where each stitched fragment embodies an inner memory preserved in physical form. The creative process unfolds from found objects, timeworn fabrics, and autobiographical impressions, turning fragile traces of the past into something both intimate and enduring. Each work is unique and unrepeatable, a singular constellation of materials and gestures.
The materials are delicate and often one of a kind: vintage medical gauze, hand-drawn tissue paper, translucent fabrics, glass, wood, and metal. Some are salvaged from forgotten uses, others have been altered through time. Each component is chosen for its tactile and symbolic strength, and assembled in a way that preserves its original identity without erasing it. The combination of the cotton tape and mother-of-pearl buttons emphasizes the idea of memory as both ornamental and binding, a thread that links presence to permanence.
The piece is shipped in custom, plastic-free packaging, protected with natural materials. It should be kept in a dry place, away from direct light and humidity. The embroidery can be hand-washed carefully with natural detergent and no softener, taking care with the buttons.
