    What is Nostalgia? and why is it such a comfort? These are the questions I set out to explore in this project. The final work produced a film, splicing together random imagery to communicate the way nostalgia is often lots of different memories with similar feelings jumbled together. The film works to present my own experience of feeling of nostalgia.

    The Moon and The sun

    For these puppets, I created a narrative in my head of a story told between the moon and the Sun in the story I imagined the moon as an old woman who had a foresight into the future and I saw the Sun as her bird.

    I was inspired by the work of Jim Henson and his work on Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal
