Noel Bassam Mohammad Maghathe: Over Everything
Art Academy of Cincinnati: McClure Gallery
Details
Over Everything explores the relationship between memory and self. Running through the nostalgia ingrained in familial archives, Noel Maghathe navigates moments they never lived; some they can still feel, others are barely tangible. In the process, they construct new memories that blur the lines between truth and fabrication. Stories surface through images, layering time, absence, joy, and longing into overlapping frames that offer fragments of past truths. These photographs become points of rediscovery, each holding inherited narratives. Embedded with words and motifs, the fabric becomes a means of communication with the past—messages to a younger self, to close and distant relatives. Over Everything examines how memory is shaped, altered, and reconstructed through the act of retrieval, initiating a dialogue between longing, connection, and remembrance.
