Memories on Paper
This thesis embarks on a journey of encapsulating cherished memories onto paper through a series of charcoal drawings. Each drawing portrays a joyful and positive moment experienced by the artist’s family members in their everyday lives. Utilizing multiple screenshots, the artist meticulously layers images, creating a rich depth within each composition.
Charcoal is chosen deliberately to evoke a gentle, soft sensation, mirroring the emotional resonance of the memories themselves. Through transparent imagery, the artist ensures that every layer remains visible, inviting viewers to immerse themselves fully in each piece.
In this collection, Reed not only immortalizes significant moments in her family’s history but also transforms them into poignant works of art. The essence of this thesis lies in the profound act of preserving precious memories shared with loved ones.
