“.dustMemories” is a series that explores the diaspora experience through a different lens, focusing on the intersection of technology, memory, and cultural identity. This series is a collection of personal documents and visuals from various cities and countries between Asia and Europe. Each piece in the series is a testament to the artist’s exploration of visual anxiety and our growing dependence on mobile technology. The artworks reveal how we, as global citizens, use technology to document our lives, capturing fleeting moments and places. This digital documentation, though ephemeral, becomes a significant part of our personal and collective memory, representing a ‘digital dust’ of experiences.

A notable aspect of the series is the incorporation of screenshots displaying the location of the photograph along with social interactions. These elements highlight how people engage with and comment on different places, adding a communal dimension to the personal journey. The series not only showcases the artist’s physical journey across continents but also delves into the virtual interactions that shape our perception of places and experiences.

The works serve as a mirror to our modern society, where we are somewhere and anytime, where memories are increasingly stored in digital formats and human connections often transpire through screens. It’s a poignant reminder of the transient nature of our digital footprints and the ever-changing landscape of human connection in the age of technology.
