This publication explores Aimée Zito Lema’s work and the relationship between memory and image, investigating the way events are remembered and recorded, and how they influence the future. The artist deals with memories and traumas in a poetic manner, visualising how history interacts with the body. Numerous small archival fragments collectively embody an assemblage, like materialised spectres from the past, shaped and marked by life. With a selection of images of research, work in progress, and new works produced for the exhibition, the book contributes to a fuller understanding of the scope of her oeuvre and was designed by Studio Veronica Ditting.
