In the series Memories, A. Breiner reflects on the objects that carry our recollections and tie us to particular moments in life. The bicycle, the reel-to-reel tape recorder, and the boombox emerge from a field of blue tones like silhouettes from a distant past—objects that are both every day and iconic. The shades of blue create a dreamy, almost melancholic atmosphere, where memories seem to drift between the clear and the blurred. The forms remain recognizable, yet never fully fixed—mirroring memory itself, which preserves impressions as fragments and sensations rather than precise detail. Here, the objects become more than mere things: the bicycle as a symbol of freedom and youth, the tape recorder as an archive of voices and sound, and the boombox as an emblem of community and musical culture. Together, the series unfolds as a poetic reflection on time, nostalgia, and the material witnesses to both our personal and collective history.
