Documentary video from the memory collection campaign in Ljubljana in 2014. The documentary project Images of Oblivion - Personal History of the City of Ljubljana is a collection of personal memories revived by elderly citizens of Ljubljana when looking at family photos taken during World War II. It consists of 23 short independent video portraits. It was created in collaboration with the Divja misel Institute and the My Streets project.
It was presented as a video installation in a darkened gallery space with ten monitors (Gallery of Vodnikova domačija, Ljubljana, May - June 2016).

Cross-Border Memory Collection Actions
The purpose of memory-contributed actions is to create an open archive that evolves over time and becomes a kind of gift that we give to the people of both cities for generations to come. Much like a family album, designed by its incompleteness, it is an archive of memory in a constant process of creation and rearticulation. Namely, Nova Gorica (Yugoslavia/Slovenia) and Gorizia (Italy) were separated not only by the boundaries between two countries and social systems but also by the boundaries between two comprehensions of the past. The border crossings that have separated us for years can now become meeting points that reflect the relationship between personal and collective memory.
