Nostalgia is an ongoing project, by photographer Frederick Popowich, that explores historical artifacts in conflict with the present, and which questions the relationship of past to present. 

 

A microphone with a damaged cord, a typewriter with jammed paper, a sewing machine with tangled thread, a broken radio, images that explore the inoperability of the historical

artifact and the question of what it means to be out of step with time.

 

Nostalgia attempts to address and acknowledge the sweeping changes we live in

the midst of, materially, culturally, politically. It is a project that exploits the

photographic medium’s distinctive ability to record history, to provide material

testimony to what once was and what remains, but here in a way that emphasizes

the irretrievability of the past.
