Forgetting is a moral and sensual entropy that aims to exonerate one from any sense of historical complicity and culpability. As a safety net it tries to erase or numb certain collective memories through its own manufactured visualisation of the body.  If bodies are ideologically consumed or perceptually appropriated through remembering as moral practice and if this remembering is instigated visually, then the same is valid for forgetting. Forgetting is fuelled by the sense of threat of a perceptual appropriation and extinction of one’s being. Where there is a visceral proximity of fear, we dress up in order to forget. It is not to go to native for the sake of it.
