Ivy-Bind is an immersive installation that weaves together film stills, textiles, embroidery, light, and moving image to explore the fragile process of remembering and forgetting. Drawing from personal archives, daily documentation, and cinematic fragments, the work unfolds as a spatial narrative where memory appears as flashes, afterimages, and tactile traces. Curtains, embroidered stills, and illuminated fabrics create an environment of suspended recollections, inviting viewers to move through overlapping layers of the personal and the collective.
The work was exhibited at der Laden – Verein für Kunst und Kultur, Weimar as part of my Diploma project at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Bauhaus-University Weimar.
