Yuka Tanabe “Sewing of the memory”
When I’m in my room all by myself, when I’m in the crowd in the city, sometimes I become unable to recognize my presence. I wear cloths, I meet someone and I talk. I ride a train, I walk down the street and I go somewhere. All these ordinary lives without anything special…but I feel I’m made up of these incidents. But the truth is, the cloths I wear, my photos or the person I see in the mirror – these things represent myself better than who I am. I’m unable to tell if “I” really exist, and my memories have no shape, and do not stay with me for long. I know that neither my memories nor my cloths stay with me forever. However off those things, I sometimes see things – a blast from the past. And that’s something to live another day for. I get by and never look back, just like casting off my own skin, and I tailor the costume to perform my own life on stage, and I sew the memories of me in that costume.
