Reminiscence: From Memory to Matter witnesses the role of reminiscence in shaping cultural identity–the often unconscious process by which significant memories are integrated into the present. Reminiscence is central to artistic expression, enabling the adaption of elements from memory into a contemporary context. In the context of immigration, reminiscence acts as a vital link that allows cultural identities to not only be preserved, but to also evolve. This exhibition draws a broader connection between cultural heritages and achievements, aiming to reproduce and pay tribute to the landscapes, scenes, textures, and symbols that marked Basma Osama’s childhood in Egypt and have, unconsciously, influenced her artistic practice and aesthetic choices. These works serve as a transcription of old and recent visual memories, reflecting the cultural diversity born from immigration.
