Expanding upon the idea that clothing is a medium beyond expression, Funda Erzade’s Romantic Memoirs takes viewers into a world in which clothing is in itself a vessel of memory, holding both the physical being, real and living, and something more elusive, the transient consciousness of the person.
A memoir lives in a garment we have worn. It represents traces of lives lived. When we connect
with the clothes we wear, we allow ourselves to relive a significant event from the past.
Sentimental stories are made and maintained through clothing and in “Romantic Memoirs” it
revolves around, love, identity, loss, and grief.
