Nostalgia

Sat 28 March – Sat 18 April

Preview: Sat 28 March 12noon, all welcome Learning Curve Gallery

As part of their Arts Award, Young Quay have devised an exhibition based on the theme of ‘nostalgia’. They settled on the theme after exploring a variety of ideas and taking inspiration from visiting Quay Arts exhibitions ‘Figured Out’ by Jenny Clayden, ‘Under the Ivy Night Rambles’ by Ed Boxall as well as Louise Bourgeois’ exhibition ‘A Woman Without Secrets’ at Southampton City Art Gallery.

This allowed the group think about exploring ‘nostalgia’ not only through the ages, but also through its emotional content, tapping into the darker side of the subject matter. The work exhibited is created and curated by Young Quay and shows different interpretations and viewpoints of what nostalgia personally means to them. There will also be a participatory element in the exhibition for visitors to add to.
