In Amnesia (Anterograde), Emily M. Chase depicts a floating, barely-there human form that appears to be evaporating at its core. The delicate, doubled limbs evoke physical and cognitive loss, perhaps over time and across generations. Through layers of sheer fabric that have been reverse-dyed with images of suspended bodies, Chase’s work suggests how memory is a full corporeal experience, affected by mental and physical health.
