KODAK MOMENTS
Nostalgia may mean rose-coloured glasses, romanticizing the past, running back home, ruminating on what could have been, and revisiting your childhood. What makes your heart ache for home?
What will our children look back on fondly or with nostalgia? Will there be the same fond sense of family and togetherness or will it be filled with video games and TV shows? Will there be running in the woods, playing with the family pet, gathering around the table to play a game?
Yes, a lot of the past is not happy family gatherings, or perfect photos, but there often seems to be something that we can hold on to; that is our nostalgia, our remembrance of the past. A lot of these paintings are photos that evoke a specific memory of a different time and place for the artist. Hopefully they will bring back some fond memories for the viewer as well.
