Outdoor installation: "Coordinates of Memory" for Terrain Biennial Newburgh 2025

Sept 27 – Nov 15, 2025

Terrain Biennial, Newburgh, NY, USA, 2025


Coordinates of Memory” outdoor installation—suspended colored balls, Terrain Biennial Newburgh 2025.

For Terrain Biennial Newburgh 2025, I created a flowing chain of balls and colors becomes a living map of memory, where each node marks the coordinates of experience across body, place, and time.


 Coordinates of Memory transforms a suspended chain of pit balls, soccer balls, basketballs, and footballs into a flowing map of recollection.

Inspired by how the brain distributes different memories across interconnected regions, the installation weaves gradients of color and material as symbolic “nodes.” 


Just as the hippocampus coordinates factual, spatial, and motor memories, the piece links playful objects from childhood and sport into an abstract cartography of experience. 

Each ball becomes a marker, each shift in hue a passage, together forming a living diagram of how memory connects across time, body, and place.
