Mathew Lomas


“I'm not the sentimental type, but...” is an audiovisual album captured through the gaze of nostalgia. How does nostalgia affect us individually and what lies beneath the initial feelings? How does time passing shape and distort our memories? “I'm not the sentimental type, but...” explores the themes of existentialism,time and technology through the eye of nostalgia. A retrospective unravelling of loss, growing up and home. Spoken word, field recordings and synthesizers interact with dismantled footage of the Wirral area in Northern England creating a cathartic re-examining of the past.
