‘2016’ (2025) 30cm x 40cm cotton, thread, card, aluminium, glass I’ll be showing both ‘2014’ & ‘2016’ at @cookelathamgallery from the November 6th - Dec 4th as part of ‘IT’S ALL ABOUT ME/IT’S ALL ABOUT YOU’ ‘Nostalgia is in many ways, a mental act of doing the splits, one foot in the present the other in a tangible or intangible past. There is no such thing as a ‘true’ memory, only the past as it is reimagined today.’   The five artists brought together in this exhibition address nostalgia, whether through the highly personalised lens of their own memories or through a more analytical take on the notion itself. Each artist takes memory — of a time, a place, a sensation, a material or an object — and distils it through their chosen medium and sensibility. As is always the case, the circuit of meaning is only completed by the viewer standing in front of the work. The person doing the splits: it’s all about you.  PV on the 5th is 6:30-8:30pm.  41 Parkgate road, SWIl 4NP photo by: @samford_artdoc
