COLLECTIVE MEMORY

LOCATION
YEAR
TORONTO, CANADA
2017

An installation in Toronto to think about the multicultural identity of Canada. A wall with 6000 bottles where visitors left their stories. Thousands of messages have been collected, scanned and transformed into digital memory.

These people arrive bearing different backgrounds, everyone with a story to tell. The installation aims to be a container, a catalyst of collective memory. Two translucent walls made of 6000 bottles will keep the messages safe, encouraging people to sit down, reflect on their past and write their story. Ultimately telling the history of Canada, is telling all these stories.

The installation has been opened in February 2017 in Woodbine Beach, Toronto and it has been visited by thousands of people that wrote and collected their stories
