This mixed-media work layers hot air balloons over a fragmented cityscape, blurring the boundary between what is seen, remembered, and imagined. Portions of the landscape emerge clearly while others are scraped away, obscured, or suspended beneath translucent layers of color and texture. The balloons drift through these fractured spaces like memories—appearing unexpectedly, carrying fragments of another time and place.
Where the Sky Remembers explores the instability of memory and the way places continue to live within us long after we have left them. The work considers travel not simply as movement across geography, but as an accumulation of images, sensations, and moments that are continually reconstructed in the mind.
