Created during Nadia Coën’s residency at KinoSaito in May 2026, Trapezoidal Memory brings moving image, language, sound and reflection into an immersive architectural environment. Its luminous planes resist a frontal reading: memory becomes a tilted space to be crossed rather than possessed.
Born in Zimbabwe and based in New York, Nadia Coën works across installation, image and exhibition design. The work was made at KinoSaito Art Center in Verplanck, New York, United States; the official video was published on 4 October 2026.
