"The origin of my work lies mainly in a questioning of the memory of places, the perception and balance of places as they are transformed by time, water, and emotion"

- Amélie Ducommun

CURATOR´S NOTE

Where Memory Softens invites us into a quiet, intimate space where time eases its grip. Through layered mixed media, Amélie Ducommun allows forms and textures to gently blur, evoking the way memory mellows with distance rather than disappearing. The work holds a sense of calm and vulnerability, encouraging slow reflection on how experience settles into feeling. It is a meditative piece that lingers softly, offering presence, warmth, and emotional depth.
