Story summary

Artist Hajar Moradi opened her exhibition "Remember / Imagine" in Canada, focusing on her experience as an immigrant and how memories change over time. In 2010, when she moved to Canada, Moradi began painting her memories to preserve them. However, she observed that these memories became altered as time progressed, highlighting the fluid nature of memory rather than its reliability. This exhibition explores how personal recollections evolve and are not fixed but mutable like water.
