More about See Memory:

Through the power of memory and imagination, we have the potential to reinterpret our pasts, free ourselves from trauma and live expansive futures. An artist explores the intimate nature of memory and the science of remembering in See Memory, a 15-minute film made out of 30,000 painting stills and interviews with ground breaking neuroscientists.

“I made See Memory with the belief that the need to understand memory and how it shapes who we are is universal. The film combines art and science, giving a vivid experience of what it is to remember and be haunted as well as enriched by our memories.” — Viviane Silvera

“See Memory is a stunning dramatization of the complexity and emotional power of human memory. In a visual and narrative journey that is as haunting as it is insightful, the film offers nothing short than an entirely new way of imagining memory, trauma, presentness, and emotional experience.” — R. John Williams, Associate Professor of English, Film and Media at Yale University

“Brilliant! Incredibly profound and so beautiful. It makes me want to just live in it for a long time.” — Jill Eikenberry; Golden Globe Winning Actress and Art Collector

“See Memory reveals and decodes the powerful impact of memory on our lives in ways that are equally monumental and graceful. The enormity of the execution through thousands of painting stills does not obfuscate, but rather humanizes the universal experience of suffering and healing and the role of memory in this process. Her work is cerebral yet profoundly emotive; colossal yet universal and relatable. I am proud to be a collector and supporter of her work.” — Ilana Grossman, Co-Founder of Pinktada, Former Head of Marketing, Artsy

“A magnificent piece, beautiful, ethereal, dreamlike.” — Simon Fortin, Actor, Playright, Lecturer, New York University
