Laraqui, Asmae - Mémoire en mutation

Explores memory as a fragile trace shaped by the passage of time, displacement,
and inherited legacies. The transformation of organic materials into porcelain relics
evokes unearthed forms, suspended between presence and disappearance, where beauty arises from alteration.

Lace and metal studs brought back from Morocco become the imprints of a personal and collective memory, while an ascending organic form suggests the persistence of life through decline and transformation. The metal rod connecting the two structures embodies the tension between rootedness and becoming, closeness and distance.

Through the metamorphosis of fibers, metal, and porcelain, the work reveals how time transforms matter without erasing the traces it preserves.
