 I forget my face every day

2015

I forget my face every day’: the title of the exhibition refers to the process of building our identity: we recall and forget memories and a healthy ego emerges from the dynamism of this process. Győri creates her own specific narratives by using different materials: paint, collage, objects, installation. The narrative fragments of personal and collective memory are closely related to each other. Győri uses desk diaries to collect and sort out her ideas in them. For the first glance the connection between the thoughts is not obvious, one should spend some time reading them. This way of using desk diaries may also be an opinion on the way we schedule our everyday life. To leave a trace, Győri uses a most diverse variety of things – a line from a Laurie Anderson track, sentences cut from a Bergson text, or photos of the surface of the skin.
