FRAMEWORK

We take on the premise that it is impossible to live without forgetting.
Memory is like a mirror, a souls perfume, a conscience placed in time from where we can observe the past and those that are absent, calling them to us.
By conserving not only their ideas, but also their order and position we can make part of the world they lived in.

Memory is, therefore, the psychiatric faculty that allows us to retain and recall past events.
Throughout history, monuments and buildings were ordered to be constructed, streets and cities were named in memory of someone’s achievements that deserve to be remembered by the people.

This human need to preserve the past for future memories comes since Ancient Mesopotamia times.
The importance of passing on this knowledge to the future generations as an effort to maintain the history of human kind alive by registering its most striking and defining moments, is an imperative of
our society !

Keeps alive the moments !!
