Ainsi la nuit

Ainsi la nuit

From series “i remember everything”.

The exhibition consists of 11 drawings, a video I see and a kinetic object titled I hear.

The series of drawings I remember everything and I forget everything were made over a year and a half. Drawing is a slow process which Krista compares to being a monk, which is interesting and exciting and at the same time opens a window to the passing of time. She is fascinated by the way graphite layers and slowly emerges from the mist – the surface of white paper.

Through the process of drawing, the artist tries to get closer to the essence of photography in the sense that it has fascinated people since the beginning of time – drawings as imprints of time and the past, a possibility to get closer to time and the matter of memories that no longer physically exist.

The title of each drawing hides and reveals a piece of music that Krista was listening to while drawing that particular work. The video I see seeks to reveal how to hear the invisible. On appearing and disappearing. Of weaving and settling.
