Memory is the memorization, retention, reproduction, or recognition of things experienced by the human brain. It is the basis of thinking, imagination, and other advanced psychological activities. So in unit2. I started to study memory. And the memory of "tree" has been repeating in my mind! Everyone has a lot of different "memories"! The happy, the fearful, the worried, the individual, the collective. At the same time, as a basic psychological process in psychological medicine, "memory" is closely related to other psychological activities. Memory connects people's psychological activities and is the basic function of people's study, work, and life. The process of transforming abstract disorder into visual order is the key to memory. My work, however, slowly changed from "figurative order" to "vague disorder ". 

​

I like to hide my memories! But every time I think about it, I get scared. The "tree" of my vague and terrible memory used to make me lose my mind. I want to get over that horrible memory of mine, but I can't tell if it's accurate. So I keep trying to recreate my memory tree in front of me.

I tried various methods and materials to restore my memory. For example paper, pencil, painting, linen, charcoal, blur, clarity, photos, asking past friends, etc. Finally, I used the feeling I wanted from the charcoal on the canvas. Because this is the closest thing I have to that horrible memory in my mind. 

​

As research continues, in Western societies, memory is their own personal museum, their personal treasure. I discovered that a person's own memory is influenced by many factors. Matter, emotion, death, mind. And most people's memories are inaccurate. It made me question my own terrible memory. I doubt myself.
