A Love Story in the City of Dreams

Medium

Photography

Year

2024

She comes in a dream.

Familiar, yet unknown. Different, yet always the same.

Every time—as if for the first time.
And every time—as if for the last.

The image of "her" returns again and again, assembled from fragments of forgotten memories, past loves, fears, and hopes. She feels real, although she may have never existed.

This series explores cryptomnesia—a phenomenon in which forgotten memories return disguised as something entirely new. Dreams become a place where memory rewrites itself, creating people, emotions, and stories that seem original but are only echoes of the past.

This is not a love story.

It is the memory of one.

Or perhaps only its phantom.

And the question remains:

What if this love is not real at all, but only a memory repeated so many times that it finally became indistinguishable from reality?
