Memorable 2

Pramuhendra's works constitute a personal biography that he uses to reveal the didactic functions of art: to build a bridge to the spirit of his past, to open a road to access his identity. For that, he begins his process by selecting some family photos that to him contain particular memories through Pramuhendra's works, we are invited to unveil the shroud clouding our minds, the question that pivots about the desire for self-identification - who am I?
