The exhibition allows the viewer to explore and feel the theme of nostalgia by not only showing it in his work but by having different smells and experiences such as a plasma orb and Atari games set up in the exhibition.
His images were inspired by his memories of fort regent but he used ai to alter the images which represents how memories can skew your knowledge and how things truly were. he would first take a photo of fort regent in the present and alter it using ai to form images of his memories. overal i think the exhibition was a great experience and really allowed you to connect with Lakemans ideas and memories and for older generations may help bring back there own memories of fort regent.
I would definitely recommend this exhibition to friends or family since you don’t have to be a photographer or know much about ai to really enjoy and take in everything.
