Embodied Memory is my final project at Bezalel Academy;

A 3D-animation installation presented across four screens, each dedicated to a different region of the body.

 

The work explores the body as a memory space, where emotional experiences, especially trauma, are stored and embedded on a sensory level: in breath, in muscle tension, in involuntary movement.

​

Drawing on somatic therapeutic approaches, the body is treated as a living text- a fractured inner home in which each region carries its own quiet emotional history:

​

Head: Dissociation and disconnection from the present as a defense against overwhelm.
Back: The weight of responsibility, roles, and pressure                 absorbed from the outside.
Belly:  Raw emotions that have not been processed.
Legs:  Held tension left from the urge to fight, flight, or freeze.

​

All of these act together within a body that keeps breathing –

remembering, responding, and continuing to carry what was never told.
