Personal memories, collective memories shared by nations and ethnic groups, even the memories that reside in a region or in objects: These intangible ideas inspire designers and creators from a variety of different fields. Andy and Shaula contemplate the concept of memory with architect Tsuyoshi Tane at his exhibition in Tokyo. Learn about kintsugi, the art of repairing broken pottery with decorative lacquer and gold dust, and examine the work of Miyako Ishiuchi, photographs of items left behind by victims of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima. Explore a world of designs that use memory to connect us to the future.
