THE SOLASTALGIC ARCHIVE
2019-present
Solastalgia is the premonition of transition, a sense of loss from an anticipated future. It is the feeling of homesickness before leaving home. The Solastalgic Archive holds materials that contextualize and give breadth to the experience of living and making in this time of accelerated change. The Archive contains ephemera of memory, creation, forgetting, destruction, preciousness and transience from a wide range of contributors. The Solastalgic Archive is an evolving, changing, temporal thing.
Please inquire about bringing the Archive to your institution or community. Contributions are also welcome. If you would like to host or exhibit the archive, please write to nina@ninaelder.com
