2021 Memories – Art Show at Frame of Mine Store – Barracks Row – through October 15

545 8th Street, SE

Capitol Hill Art League participating artists were asked to explore their interpretations of the theme 2021 Memories using any media, including photography .

It’s worth thinking about the definition of memory when viewing this show:  “The faculty by which the mind stores and remembers information” – “something remembered from the past; a recollection.”  These pieces reflect sometimes one, sometimes the other, sometimes both.  I had to look up the definition of saudade – the title of Jan Zastrow’s piece: “a deep emotional state of nostalgic or profound melancholic longing for something or someone that one cares for and/or loves. Moreover, it often carries a repressed knowledge that the object of longing might never be had again.”  Wiki
