Memory Stone, Inés Cámara Leret

Inés Cámara Leret's work examines ideas central to the fields of identity, memory and ecology exploring life through materials that are static, at times inert, or seemingly ephemeral. This approach has led her to collaborate with experts whose knowledge ranges in diverse subject matters including: chemists, physicists, crystallographers, biologists, and botanists. In the past, she has recorded breaths on a limestone’s memory, grown crystals from her own saliva, captured rainfall using asphalt and exposed the term ‘light’ to 342 year’s worth of radiance, the time elapsed since light was first measured.
