Andrea, I think the nighttime is perfect to symbolically describe memories. Shots at night have a peculiar quality, like memories. Some details are altered, others similar, others missing, and yet others clearer. Overall, the appearance of a nighttime photograph is unlike what we generally deem 'real'. Perfect!
I'm attaching Frank Relle's work. Check out his website. While I find his five years of nighttime photography a bit redundant, the work is strong.
For you, start by figuring out how to make a good shot at night, simply; then move on to speaking of memory (this way the stress of finding the 'right' place, 'right' shot is put aside while you figure out the nitty-gritty).
Also, check out Scott Werley's Jellyfish Sea shots.
