SOFT MEMORIES, PENE d'AMORE – Amebe, Studio Amebe

A compelling fabric sculpture that transforms everyday elements, such as bath towels, into a striking penis-like shape through intricate folding techniques. This innovative use of soft, domestic materials juxtaposes the hardness typically associated with sculptural forms, infusing the work with layers of meaning and emotion. The sculpture serves as a poignant representation of the memory of a past, painful love, encapsulating the complexities of intimacy and the yearning for a love untainted by suffering.

By recontextualizing common household items into a form laden with emotional and symbolic weight, the result is a powerful statement on the intersection of love and pain. ‘SOFT MEMORIES’  challenges traditional notions of both sculpture and romantic experiences, urging viewers to reflect on their own relationships and the universal desire to find love without the accompanying heartache. This work speaks to the resilience of the human spirit and the ongoing quest for a pure, joyful connection amidst the remnants of past wounds. 2015
