Created during an eight-week residency within the Library’s SLV LAB, IN MEMORY | OF BEING is built from ‘orphan’ materials in State Library Victoria's vast digitised collection: photographs of unidentified subjects, recordings whose significance has been lost to time.

Artist-scientist Yoyo Munk shares how they created this work for the Library’s Domed La Trobe Reading Room, blending the Library’s architecture and archives in a haunting exploration of memory and place.
