Showcase: Nick Lynch

 

Nick Lynch is an artist based in Glasgow. He is also one half of Bronze Age Editions, an independent publishing platform specialising in zines, exhibitions and limited editions. The images on these pages are a mixture of original photography and altered found imagery. They explore and examine how we 'see' memories, how we visualise a past event or detail from our lives. Some are more literal then others. Some barely scrape the surface while others paint a rather clear picture. Some are abstractions and others are representations. Collectively, they inspect the idea that we do not view our past in just one particular way. It's not always sepia-toned nostalgia or even a photographic-like image. Memories come to us in a million and one shapes. Some more obvious than others.
