The nostalgia bone

Nostalgia bone

I’m heavily into my nostalgia.

That collection of keepsakes, photographs, notes, drawings and tickets where we create our story, our own personal museum. I love that random objects and images can take on an almost magical power, with the ability to evoke such strong feelings. These things can occupy a physical space while representing another entirely.

I got really fascinated with the idea that in the 18C doctors actually looked for a ‘locus’ of nostalgia, to explain the longing for home in sailors. A nostalgia bone.
