Aloha Bauwens: "The frustration of not forgetting" (2025)

Attention! Start session for bidding for this lot.


**The Frustration of Not Forgetting** (2025) explores the persistence of memories and ideas that involuntarily reappear, even when there is a desire to let go of them. Against a dark purple background, numerous lines of varying shades intertwine and traverse the horizontal composition, forming a visual structure that evokes neural connections and the Artworkings of the brain. From within this netArtwork of lines emerge fine yellow bubbles, accompanied by small dots that seem to detach from them, like a representation of the subconscious bringing back to the surface that which one tries to forget. The contrast between purple and yellow, complementary colors, intensifies the visual tension between the dark frameArtwork and the luminous forms that appear within it. Through a pictorial language characterized by the overlapping of lines, chromatic intensity, and the construction of abstract spaces, the Artwork transforms an internal experience into an image of persistent memory: a flow of thoughts and memories that continues to manifest itself, even when one tries to leave it behind.
