Shezad Dawood + Leah Kelly | The Science of Nostalgia

Is nostalgia a vice of the aged or a tool to recalibrate our feelings about the present?

Peering at our past through rose-tinted glasses, we can often let the fondness for our memories shade our desire to move forward. Artist Shezad Dawood, whose work is currently in the galleries as a part of the exhibition A Lost Future, uses nostalgia of place to develop virtual future realities. Dawood is joined by neuroscientist Leah Kelly to further explore nonlinear narratives and the negative and positive influences of nostalgia.
