I Recall

Now that he had started her remembering, recollections – like flotsam on a river in sudden spate – came dancing, gliding, bobbing and bumping across her reluctant mind.

Fanny by Gaslight, Michael Sadleir 1940


Sharyn has been questioning memory and recollection for several years, since a statement from a family member led to emotional and physical estrangement.

“Remembering seems to be a process of selection and using that selection to move forward, positively or negatively. What I remember, subconsciously or not, reflects my personality and shapes my life. Or maybe my personality dictates what I choose to
remember.”

In this exhibition I Recall, she explores her childhood memories and recent recollections and has created Art Objects recalling A Dream, A Face and A Fragmented Memory Collection.
