Love Lost, Bucharest. This project is, in all senses, a labor of love.
We created an experience for the local community as we invited people to participate with stories of love and loss and objects that come alive as deeply personal artifacts of those narratives.
The exhibit featured local artists, who, through varying mediums, showcased their representations of love, loss and attachment.
The creative workshops provided participants a better understanding of the connection between love and loss, along with a series of active techniques designed for the individual (but also collective) healing process. Each event had a creative and therapeutic character, without limitation to this.
We immortalized our guests’ intimate emotional journey through the exhibit into a unique AI-generated digital artwork by recording the evoked emotions on each of the objects, while using the Love Lost web app.
The exhibit memento can be minted as an NFT or destroyed forever.
