The work anamnesis is a series of sculpture casts made of various materials, representing separated parts of the human body. The work is constructed on the different relations and situations that describe individually and collectively the casts, the different materials and their symbolic dimensions. Anamnesis (Greek: ανάμνηση, meaning recollection, reminiscence) is a term used in medicine, philosophy, psychoanalysis and religion. What we think of as learning, is actually bringing back what we had forgotten. (Plato to Socrates, Theory of anamnesis)
