“When I was ten years old, I was playing with fire and I accidentally spilled gasoline on myself. My burns were severe, and I barely survived. It was extremely difficult, but when I became a father, I came to see that it must have been much harder on my parents than on myself. The fear of losing a child is so much greater then the fear of personal perish. However, losing a child is not just a physical thing. Separating from my wife after 21 years together reawakened the fear, and an avalanche of emotions buried me. These images are talking about loss and distance. These images are talking about bonds. These images are talking about photography as a bridge. These images are creating the past. These images speak of the fears and delights of being a father.” Author about photography series presented in this book.

Memory Lab je skupni projekt mreže Evropskega meseca fotografije, posvečen izpraševanju spomina in refleksiji zgodovine skozi umetnost. Knjiga predstavlja dela štiridesetih avtorjev, ki se posvečajo odnosu do časovno bolj ali manj oddaljenih konfliktov, ki še vedno odmevajo v današnjem javnem diskurzu. Avtorji se naslavljajo vprašanje ohranjanja spomina in zapisovanja zgodovine, ki iz tega izvira, pri tem pa običajno fotografije ne uporabljajo kot način dokumentiranja sveta na racionalen način, ampak se zanašajo na sugestivno moč fotografije.
