FOSSILIZED MEMORIES
In an increasingly digital future, where countless memories are stored as data on electronic devices, the need to rekindle our connection to the physical and nostalgic aspects of memory is becoming more important. Fossilized Memories allows people to reflect on and store sentimental objects in order to re-establish a connection to tangible memories.
“Memory freezes home in a certain time, while preserved objects operate as portals”
