I forgot something before I recalled it is an artist’s book by Wang, inspired by her recollection of a previous book she created in 2020. This collection of photographs, taken over two years ago in Taiwan, Wang’s homeland, explores the intricate and complex nature of memory as it fades and is reconstructed over time. Using threads, Wang creates unique patterns that reflect how individuals recollect their memories. By puncturing the surface of photographic fragments that were originally damaged, blurred, or creased, Wang visualizes how memories can transform and evolve with each recollection. This captivating work reimagines the dynamic interplay between photography and memory, delving into the ever-changing nature of memories and the crucial roles that both recalling and forgetting play in shaping them.
