When I first saw these pieces I wasn’t as fascinated as when I found out these were made from just memory. This artist’s admiration for this activist is pretty genuine and it is quite incredible to pinpoint anything from your memory to the paper, I have tried making portraits of people without using any reference but memory and it was way too difficult and the results were no where near satisfying. So to see this being exhibited in the museum is pretty inspiring. All of the pieces are quite similar so I guess since practicing certain movements weren’t really affected by memory loss.
