After two years of quiet dedication, I’m finally unveiling a series that holds a very special place within me: BETWEEN MOTION AND MEMORY.
Most people know that the ocean has stirred my imagination since childhood — with its endless depth, quiet power, and haunting beauty. That influence has never left me; it flows through everything I create. But many have also noticed another recurring presence: Porsche. It’s not just the timeless elegance or iconic design that draws me to this brand. What resonates most is a spirit — one that quietly mirrors how I navigate both life and creation: with care, clarity, and purpose.
I’ve always been deeply moved by the words of Ferdinand Anton Ernst Porsche: “In the beginning I looked around and could not find quite the car I dreamed of. So I decided to build it myself.” Ferry Porsche was a quiet visionary — more artisan than entrepreneur — someone who never sought the spotlight but instead listened closely to the subtle dialogue between form, feeling, and function. In 1948, far from bustling factories, he crafted the very first Porsche within the humble walls of an old Austrian sawmill. The setting was rudimentary, modest, and far from ideal for building a car. Yet it was here, precisely in that silence, that he shaped what would become a timeless symbol of clarity, precision, and grace. He did not set out to build a mere brand — he created a refuge, a mechanical poem for those longing for something lasting and true.
That story has stayed with me because there’s something in it I deeply resonate with: a quiet vision, the patience and discipline to create with thoughtful care, and a firm inner compass to navigate the unknown and unseen.
I was fortunate to grow up with a grandfather who, as an artist himself, never steered me toward safety. Instead, he encouraged me to forge my own path, no matter how uncertain or steep the road ahead. Because of that, I’ve never feared being different. More often than not, I had to invent the path forward, confront setbacks that felt insurmountable, and carve space where there was none. It was rarely easy — but I do not regret a single step. The deepest growth, the most lasting truths, came not despite the struggle, but because of it.
BETWEEN MOTION AND MEMORY is not just a tribute to craft and care in today’s restless world — deep beneath, it is also a mirror of my own journey, shaped by stillness, longing, and the quiet resilience forged through years of solitude. Who could have thought that it would be here in Portugal where my passion for classic sports cars would truly take shape and will became real? I arrived not knowing a single soul, nor what would unfold — and yet I stayed, living alone for over seven years. Each of these images carries the silence I lived with, the beauty I reached for, and the quiet strength found when everything felt unbearably heavy, threatening to crumble beneath the weight of despair. As this series came to life, so too did glimmers of light — eternal, quiet, and refusing to fade.
The classic sports cars at the heart of this series are not merely preserved — they are revered. Held within the timeless hush of natural caves — the earth’s oldest sanctuaries — they rest in a space where myth, memory, and matter converge. The cave, ancient and symbolic, is no hollow absence but a vessel of transformation: a threshold between light and shadow, motion and stillness, the ephemeral and the eternal.
Still in form but not in presence, these vehicles radiate a tension: between what moved us then and what distracts us now; between the integrity of craft and the disposability of the present; between silence, and the echo of a world that once moved with meaning. They are not remnants of nostalgia, but living symbols of a deeper, more soulful connection between human and machine.
They come from a time when speed served purpose, and beauty was born not from algorithm but from attention. These machines were not merely assembled — they were imagined. Each curve drawn with care, each sound engineered not for performance alone, but for poetry. They were built to last, to be touched, to be heard — and above all, to be loved.
By contrast, today’s world moves relentlessly. We are surrounded by acceleration, yet adrift in meaning. We scroll, swipe, and consume — but arrive nowhere. Motion has become noise. Presence has been replaced by performance. Craft by convenience. Connection by consumption.
BETWEEN MOTION AND MEMORY is an attempt to pause and listen. To remember a different kind of movement — one that is within and connects us to something lasting. Something real. Each image — discovered through solitary journeys to classic car gatherings and along Portugal’s wild Atlantic edges — is a quiet act of remembrance. Together, they form a visual elegy to a time when creation was an act of devotion, and movement was not escape, but arrival.
This is a quiet rebellion against forgetting.
This is not about looking back. It’s about looking deeper beneath the modern rush and noise.
These images are still, but not silent. They call to return — not to an era, but to a way of being. Where movement had direction. Where objects had soul. Where time was given, not taken.
This is not nostalgia. It is presence — fierce, intentional, and alive. Because what is made with love and purpose does not fade. It becomes a part of us. It endures — not as memory, but as meaning.
This 1/1 limited edition series includes 8 unique artworks, each measuring 80 x 114 cm. Printed with archival pigments on Hahnemühle William Turner 310 gsm paper—renowned for its sumptuous, richly textured surface and 100% cotton composition—each print is carefully framed behind museum glass and encased in a custom-made Nielsen dark grey aluminum frame.
I chose to produce only one large-format print of each image, as a way to honour the profound personal meaning they carry within my journey. If one of these pieces resonates with you and you’d like to make it part of your space, feel free to contact me directly at tenikyte.egle@gmail.com.
For those who feel a connection to the work but are seeking something more intimate in scale—or simply wish to explore more of my artistic world—a curated selection is available here.
And while I can’t yet share all the details, I’m honoured to have been invited to exhibit my work—three of these pieces will soon be on view in Lisbon and Cascais. I’ll be announcing more about the upcoming exhibition in the weeks ahead.
