Trans-ideology: Nostalgia will show new video works from international artists covering a wide range of ideas surrounding the concept of nostalgia. Fabio DaSilva and Jim Faught suggest in their article Nostalgia: A Sphere and Process of Contemporary Ideology (1982) that nostalgia isolates and mythicises selected objects from the past so that we feel we are enjoying a more tranquil and conflictless past. This nostalgic past is somehow not completely the reality, rather, it is ambiguous cookery courses and is purified. DaSilva and Faught indicate that the past is usually perceived as more tranquil than the present. The nostalgic cookery courses past ignores real material conditions and tensions, and embraces an emotional utopia.
Nostalgia offers a comfort zone where we find a peaceful and conflictless past, and where we escape from the hectic and demanding cookery courses real life in capitalist society. As nostalgia reduces our critical engagement with the past, history is not entirely real but is selected and mythical. Therefore, nostalgia is based on either dreamy and subjective views of the past, or fantasy about the future. The screening aims to show selected lens-based cookery courses work which is created with the ideology of recalling the internal and utopian world of individuals either a nostalgic past or a fantasised future.
