The Roundness of Memory by Robin Cameron and Clément Masurier

KT’s Bottling House is pleased to present The Roundness of Memory, an exhibition featuring the works of Robin Cameron and Clement Masurier. Valuable yet impermanent, the methods of recording and recounting memory have evolved from storytelling to virtual reality. The path of recollection and realization is a matter of assemblage; a structural process of reviewing and editing one’s relationship to history, reality, and potential. In this, memory is hardly real-time or collated, but rather distorted and of a round, quantum nature.  
 

In conversation with Stephen Kieran’s Living Memorials: An Invitation for All, the concepts of preservation vs. conservation are contemplated when the criteria is more than material. What are the opportunities and obligations to continue the comprehensible conversation that began before us and continues beyond? If ‘lately’ is the last millennia, what is now?

About Clément Masurier 
Clément Masurier (b. 1990, Paris, France) is a licensed architect based in Paris who founded the firm Géométral in 2022. Its disciplinary foundation rests upon architecture, research, and education. In the manner of a small collection of architectures and programs, the projects undertaken by Géométral offer a unique universe each time. A multitude of different ambiences and atmospheres for the inhabitant, visitor, observer, or curious soul. From traversed landscapes, encounters with people, places seen and experienced, or stories recounted, the accumulated ideas have formed a material with which to work and share. Coupled with years of rich and diverse professional experiences, these imaginaries have given rise to realities and projects that extend their spheres of influence within the realms of architecture and space. Clément graduated in 2016 from the National School of Architecture in Paris Malaquais and in 2022 from the National School of Architecture in Versailles. He teaches at École Spéciale d’Architecture in Paris since 2020.
