Memories: an artistic and scientific exploration of how we connect, communicate, grow and share
Memory is connected to who we are – as individuals, as groups of people, as a society, as a culture. All of these Memories are tied together; influencing and intertwining each other.
Drawing together researchers from the Wicking Dementia Research and Education Centre (University of Tasmania) and artists, this exhibition explores Memory as a social, cultural, and biological phenomena.
