Mnemonic Mercury is an exhibit of color film photography connected through themes of memory, empathy, identity, forgetting, illness, retention, and volatility. Central to the bodies of work presented in the show are questions such as: How do we empathize with someone who is actively forgetting? What makes up an identity, and what happens when a person loses those things?"
