Meditation on Chanel N°5 transforms everyday objects into vessels of memory. Perfume, cherries, a coffee maker, stainless-steel utensils, and eyeglasses are more than elements of a still life—they are traces of daily rituals that quietly shape our lives. Each object carries fragments of experience, preserving emotions, relationships, and moments that often pass unnoticed.
The iconic scent of Chanel N°5 becomes a catalyst for remembrance, while reflections, transparency, and the material qualities of glass and metal suggest the layered nature of memory itself. Some recollections remain vivid, others gradually fade, yet together they record the passage of time and the process of growing older.
Moving beyond the tradition of still life as a study of objects, the drawing considers domestic space as an archive of lived experience. It invites viewers to reflect on how ordinary things become repositories of personal history, bridging the past and the present, the visible and the invisible, the tangible and the intangible.
