La 24 Ore (literally "24 Hours") is a leather briefcase designed to hold only a day’s essentials. It embodies the process of memory itself, its limitations and demands for selection and compression: a house must become a small, portable case; years passed within its walls must become only moments of inward reflection, representing stages in a journey of remembrance, preservation of memory, grief, and ultimately, personal transformation.
"The 24 Ore embody those aspects of memory that must be creative, life-giving, eternal. Each case is carefully and richly constructed, the images within are multiplied, and varied, each iteration a different hue and shade from the last — evoking the way that a memory repeatedly recalled is still a new creation every time, uniquely colored by the circumstances and emotions of the moment of its recollection. This aspect of the inescapable present, as well as the inescapable self within whom these memories are ultimately made, is echoed in each briefcase by the circular mirror to be found in the lid when it is opened, confronting the viewers with an image of themselves, overlaid with the yet more ephemeral reflected images of the memories within" [...] Lisa A.
