The title "Vivace" , in English perennial, is derived from the plant that blooms every year. However, depending on the context, it can also describe an invasive weed. Questioning memory and transformation, the installation appropriates cultural motifs to deconstruct the signs and signifiers that shape collective memory.

The installation consists of a wallpaper pattern covering an entire wall. The patterns are applied with stencils using the ash as a pigment, and with water to adhere. During the course of the exhibition the ashes slowly dry out and eventually gravitate to piles on the floor.

In its third edition (above), the pattern consists of two mirrored and opposing leitmotifs: the Sauvastika and the Swastika. The Sauvastika is a Buddhist symbol representing luck. This symbol has been laterally (and literally) inverted by the Nazi regime.
