Distance Past constructs a narrative exploring the concept of migration and transience in the everyday. The project examines three stages of movement—departure, stasis, return—through a morphing floor projection, a book of objects, and a series of memory paintings. These stages visualize patterns of movement and memory in a world driven by people constantly on the move. This project was showcased as part of the exhibition Mnemonic: Collective Fragments.
