Mnemosyne Occurrences (2022)

The Mnemosyne couture collection is brought to life in this therapeutic exploration of memories through the lens of Ericksonian Hypnosis. The models and the garments emerge from a dark abyss, standing out in stark contrast through lighting. They interact with one another through movements centred around a specific part of the body, a process that allows for unconscious memories to emerge in Ericksonian hypnosis. The original soundtrack by Jonatan Wejnold draws the viewer into a trance-like state through a soundscape that exists at the ‘interchange-station’ between the organic and digital world. Memories emerge continuously, bringing about a sense of progression and encouraging a positive exploration of the unconscious mind.
