This series constructs a new reality from the echoes of a vanished world. The images are composed entirely of archival photographs: objects, models, and constructed figures that were once made at my father's workplace — a place that has since been demolished, erased without a trace. Another layer of the archive consists of old family photos, making the montages even more personal and intimate. This was the magical world of my childhood: a place that no longer exists in physical form, yet lives on in my memory and visual imagination.

These works are not merely documents. My aim was not to mourn the past, but to reinterpret it: what if these things were not destroyed, but simply crossed into another dimension? In the images, the blue sphere and the object-bodies seem to pass through a kind of portal — as if the layers of time and space had fractured, allowing something to break through. The series offers a glimpse into this imagined realm.

I was inspired by Stanisław Lem’s novel Solaris, in which memories are not just internal images, but condense into physical, living reality. The objects in my images are such “condensed memories” — not allegories, but real fragments of another world, perceptible only through a child’s gaze or the collective unconscious. This series is not a reconstruction of the past. Rather, it is a threshold — an opening back to where lost things still exist.
