The Glen P. Sutherland Gallery of Art and The Brandon University (BU) Fine Arts Student Association are pleased to host Nostalgica, a thesis exhibition by international fine arts student Lori Ore.
Nostalgica is about Ore’s personal experience with homesickness since she’s moved to Brandon from Miami, Fla.
Ore explores the nature of nostalgia through portraiture, installation and video art. Her painterly portraits reflect her family and friends from her hometown. Through video art Ore uses a synchronization of video and sound to reveal the daydreaming of the environment she longs for on a daily basis.
