Nostalgic Geography

Oxygen Art Centre, Nelson, BC - Sep 6 – 28

by Robin Laurance

Subtitled Mama and Papa Have Trains, Orchards and Mountains in Their Backyard, this multi-channel audio-video exhibition was created by collaborating artists prOphecy sun and Darren Fleet during their recent residency at Oxygen. Based on the rural community of Harrop-Procter, their work examines the substantial changes that have occurred in the area. It serves as “a meditation on the relational networks of technology, economy, landscape and memory.”
