Memories stem from the journey, the place where memory itself comes to life. The persistency of the remembrances leads us to a non-place, a non-journey, which settling into the deepest layer of the soul, it permeates, becoming immortal and denying its temporary and momentary effectiveness. Starting from an event that actually happened, its denial becomes immortality, no more place, no more journey but persistency.
Remembrances find their place into a non-time. Time is fleeting and remembrances are the only way to fix it and make it eternal. The erect and majestic architectures featured on the artworks represents the steadiness of time, which fixes the images into our memories. These remembrances, only if shared, can bring relationships alive again, thus becoming the setting for a lost social context populated by those who left an indelible mark in our memories.
A powerful and luxuriant nature runs through the evanescent backdrops of our memories, bringing them into the present and giving substance to what it was blurred, elusive and latent.
The non-place fills up with meanings which eliminate the rules of time making it infinite and strengthening the persistency of memories into an endless journey in a world without boundaries.
The present, portrayed by nature, becomes the setting to recall past moments.
The evanescence is turned into a real presence on the walls and the non-place becomes a theatre for the memory.
Non-places belong neither to the past nor to the future. They exist in the eyes of the observers and will bring lively experiences again into them. This will be the place where you can be yourself.
The wallpaper collection Special Edition signed by Giovanni Bressana celebrates the power of art of giving persistency and pragmatism to the memory which becomes immortal.
