Peggy Weil: Core Memory

At MoMA Exhibitions, Peggy Weil presents *Core Memory*, an exhibition that treats digital storage as both material and metaphor. The work traces how images and personal traces persist in machines, and how that persistence reshapes what we call memory. In New York, where archives, surveillance, and self-documentation are everyday conditions, the piece reads as a local study as much as a contemporary one. Weil’s clear-eyed approach avoids nostalgia, and that restraint gives the questions room to land.
