The future of memory Región

Territories of memory and oblivion

"The Future of Memory" seeks to promote the contamination between artistic disciplines, the disruption of barriers in the way of thinking, as well as the crossing and putting in tension of official speeches in South America. This space aims to become a meeting place to weave relations between the questions and concerns that currently pose the artists of the region around memory and oblivion.

Narrative of the Mnemofilia and Lotofagia laboratory

After hearing the testimony of a female victim of the armed conflict in Colombia, lawyer Alejandro Valencia Villa collected the main ideas presented by the experts and the audience. While wishing to stay faithful to the impressions of each participant and respect the chronology of interventions, this remains an interpretation of the experience.

In the beginning there were questions. Countless questions, about memory and oblivion, something that became very clear during the first moments of the inauguration of The Future of Memory, when key participants of this project met for the first time to talk about their worries and concerns.
