In the final semester of our undergraduate program, we were tasked with completing our final project accompanied by a written thesis.
​
This thesis explores the intersection of memory, art, and science, particularly focusing on how memory is triggered by the senses and how it relates to both personal and collective experiences. Through the lens of artists like Ribot, Nietzsche, and Proust, the work reflects on memory’s elusive nature—how it fades, is reshaped, and sometimes misremembered. The project takes inspiration from both personal loss and global events like the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting how our memories of these times will be subjective and unique. The thesis also draws parallels between the illusions of filmmaking and the mind’s construction of memory, suggesting that memory, like film, is a constructed reality, shaped by time, emotion, and perception. Ultimately, it argues that memory, much like the art of cinema, exists in a fluid state, constantly reworked and reinterpreted—where the boundaries between truth and illusion become increasingly blurred. Through this exploration, it emphasizes that we are, in many ways, defined by what we’ve lost, making memory the “seventh art” of our brain, a dynamic, evolving process.
