Introduction: Memory in Print and Photography

In this libguide we look at items in the library which explore the intimate intersection between visual material and memory. Examining how artists how navigated their own personal, subjective experiences through their art. Foregrounding personal narratives, heartbreaks, family lineage and everything in between.
