| Abstract: | 'Nostalgia isn't what it used to be', printed essay for Alexis Soul Gray's exhibition, 'Memory Play' at Bo Lee and Workman Gallery in January/February 2025. The essay focuses on collage as a methodology to perform nostalgia within Soul Gray's work and suggests painting as a DeLorean, in perpetual return to its legacies. The essay was published online and in print form - in a booklet designed by Lucy Harbut. |
