Touched Forgetting Won’t Let Go

Explore Teréz Szilágyi’s “Touched Forgetting” at Ladó Gallery, Budapest—an evocative exhibition probing memory, perception, and the objects that anchor or erase recall, on view April 7–30.
when: 2026. April 7., Tuesday - 2026. April 30., Thursday
where: Ladó Galéria 1072 Budapest, Klauzál tér 11.

Teréz Szilágyi’s Touched Forgetting takes over Ladó Gallery (Ladó Galéria) from April 7 to 30, diving into time, memory, and the shifting meanings we attach to objects. It asks how experiences settle—or fade—in personal memory, and what traces survive when attention loosens its grip. The show puts the mechanics of perception, recall, and forgetting under a bright, sometimes unforgiving light, turning small remnants into stubborn testimonies.

Time That Slips, Objects That Stay

Through quietly charged arrangements, Szilágyi maps how conscious sensing hardens into recollection—or dissolves into gaps. Objects become hinges: not souvenirs, but active agents that either fix a moment or let it blur. Memory isn’t treated as a vault but as a living system with leaks, edits, and re-recordings.

Between Recall and Erasure

The exhibition keeps returning to the fragile interval where memory forms, falters, or is revised. It doesn’t mourn what’s lost so much as expose the process of losing—how noticing becomes narrative, and how forgetting shapes what survives. In Touched Forgetting, remembering is labor, and every object is a contested witness.
