Art Exhibition - Nostalgia by Leigh Penton

Rusten House Art Centre presents an exhibition of photographic works by Leigh Penton.

Nostalgia is a photographic exploration of memory's fluid and unreliable nature. These images do not document the past as it was, but as it is remembered—softened, fragmented, and reimagined. Through muted tones, subtle textures, and everyday subjects, the work invites viewers to find personal meaning within familiar scenes. Moments appear suspended between presence and absence, echoing the way memories fade yet persist. This exhibition reflects on how identity is shaped through recollection, where truth and imagination intertwine. Rather than preserving the past, Nostalgia embraces its distortion, encouraging a quiet contemplation of what we choose to remember.
