A visual metaphor for how memory shapes the world we think we’re seeing.

The text reads:

Memory bends perception

as gravity bends light.

What we see

depends

on where we stand

in time.

This piece blends retro computing, cosmic imagery, and environmental detail to illustrate a core Elephantasm idea: perception isn’t fixed — it’s warped by the accumulated mass of our memories. Two people can sit at the same desk and see different realities, because they stand on different timelines.

Printed on archival-quality matte stock, 18×24".

A thought experiment for your wall — especially if you build systems where perception is a function of memory.
