/Recollect
Experimental design artist Thomas Buckley and their collaborative studio of sensory makers present Recollect, an interactive and unique new work made specifically for ArtHouse Jersey. Alongside a team of local volunteers, closely held and precious memories from real people of advanced years have been borrowed and translated into sensory, interactive experiences. Working in collaboration with Age Concern the artist and volunteers have together built relationships, discovered and translated the real stories of people who call Jersey home.
