Necessity of Fragility Is a deeply immersive, multi-sensory installation by Dave Thomson - Lost Few unfolding at The MEMO in Healesville from 11 October to 14 December 2025
Blending spatial multi-channel sound, projection, light, scent and touch. This large-scale work invites audiences in to a space where grief and healing intertwine.
Delicate floral sculptures serve as both physical and symbolic elements, echoing themes of impermanence, memory and renewal
Born from personal loss, the project uses art as a vessel for transformation, reflecting the artist’s journey following the passing of his sister through suicide.
Through layered soundscapes, shifting light and ephemeral scents, Necessity of Fragility explores how we process trauma, how we hold onto memory and how art can guide us through the delicate balance of pain and renewal
This exhibition invites you to step into vulnerability, to reflect and to find connection through shared experience
