I think of you often unfolds as a series of panels depicting blurred images of existing laundromats, each conceived as a subtle shrine to memory and loss. Echoing Proust’s madeleine, the work explores how the everyday encounter with place and scent can stir recollection and sustain connection across absence. Each laundromat functions as a symbolic site, linked to a past relationship with someone now out of reach, where the simple act of passing by reactivates traces of intimacy.
Through its hazy surfaces and evocations of repetition, I think of you often meditates on the fragile interplay between memory and environment, revealing how the most ordinary urban spaces can become repositories of longing, attachment, and remembrance.
