The body remembers what memory wants to forget.

​

​​​​No(body) emerged from a question I found myself returning to again and again:

If emotional suffering and memories could be removed completely, would we choose to let it go?

​

We live in a culture increasingly devoted to optimization. We are one with our screens that monitor our productivity, we seek wellness practices that promise transformation, and search for technologies capable of minimizing discomfort.

​

The fictional clinic at the centre of No(body) imagines a future where emotional pain has become a condition to be treated rather than experienced. Yet beneath this speculative world lies a deeply human question about memory, identity, and grief.

​

The work explores ambiguous loss—the experience of mourning futures that never arrived, relationships that never fully existed, and versions of ourselves that remain unfinished.

​

Rather than offering answers, No(body) invites audiences to inhabit this complexity and consider what remains when we attempt to erase the very experiences that shape us.​​
