In a new series of large-scale drawings, Runo Lagomarsino explores the fragile boundaries between memory, repetition, and erasure. In these works, the artist methodically stamps the phrase "Nobody Forgets Nothing" onto paper, layering it until the words dissolve into a dense, intricate surface. What begins as a clear statement transforms into an impenetrable landscape – where meaning is both present and obscured, and remembering and forgetting blur into one. As the words accumulate, their individual significance fades, yet their presence remains – a meditation on memory’s contradictions and the spaces between what is said, seen, and remembered.

Through this process, Lagomarsino investigates the weight of language and the way memories imprint themselves upon us – overlapping, distorting, and reshaping our understanding of the past. The repeated phrase becomes both a mantra and a paradox, questioning whether true forgetting is ever possible or if every experience lingers beneath the surface, waiting to be uncovered. Just as layers of stamped text remain visible beneath these works, buried histories persist in shaping the present. And as the act of repetition builds upon itself, what begins as an individual mark expands into a collective field of memory, a shared space where personal and historical traces merge.
