Discursive Structures of Material Memory – Tef Nakielski and Felipe García Salazar

The work reflects on the fragility of memory and the mechanisms of control that shape it, articulating material memory and the institutionalized body. Fragmented sculptures evoke ruins of incomplete narratives and the logic of the archive, always partial and selective. An iron structure supports both the fragments and a surveillance system, as a metaphor for the production of disciplined bodies. The use of analogue cameras introduces a temporal fold. where the institutional gaze is revealed and questioned. The installation creates a liminal space between preservation and control, fragment and totality, where memory and body enter into dispute.
