Our Team

The Post Memory Team is a group of Nelson based artists and designers who are passionate about preserving our heritage. We believe it is important that we remember the lives, innovations, resilience, and resourcefulness of our ancestors, for without them we would not be here forming our own stories. Post Memory is a complex theory of how generations after recall a past which we have not experienced ourselves and cannot now see. The aim of this team is to make the invisible become visible.
