Memories in Motion: A Visual Journey Through Memory and Its Fragility

Memories in Motion brings together the international artists Tess Dumon (France), Helena Minginowicz (Poland), Alexis Jang (South Korea), Anna Ruth (Czech Republic), Harriet Gillett (United Kingdom), Riikka Anttonen (Finland), Karolina Szwed (Poland), and Kateřina Ondrušková (Czech Republic) in a universal dialogue on memory as a living, fluid, and constantly evolving substance, and on the fragility of experience.

Presented in collaboration with Yusto/Giner gallery, the exhibition explores how memories, whether personal or collective, shape our perceptions, influence our decisions, and define the contours of our humanity.

Through diverse perspectives and practices, the artists offer a visual and emotional meditation on memory. The works presented convey the vulnerability and beauty of what passes, disappears, or transforms. They examine traces, routines, and nostalgia, but also resilience and the human capacity to create meaning from memory.

The works oscillate between gentleness and intensity, between the intimate and the universal, inviting visitors to reflect on how we engage with our memories. Do we preserve them, transform them, or let them fade?

Memories in Motion presents memory as a poetic movement capable of traveling through bodies, artworks, and emotions. The exhibition space becomes a laboratory of time, where each work enters into dialogue with the others, between light and shadow, motion and stillness, the concrete and the abstract. Each piece functions as a visual poem attempting to capture that which, by nature, eludes us.

Visitors are invited to immerse themselves in the echoes of the exhibition, to discover their own resonances, to feel the back-and-forth between past and present, and to experience multiple emotions. Memories move through us, slipping into our gestures, our silences, and our dreams. Some lift us, others wound us, yet all are part of an invisible movement that connects us to time, to the fragile beauty of what has been, and to the hope of what is yet to come.

The exhibition opens on Saturday, 29 November, from 11 am to 2 pm at the gallery space in Marbella. It is curated by Geraud Jean Claude (City of Talents).
