Based upon fascinating scientific research that demonstrates how susceptible we are to false memories, False Memory Archive features artworks by A.R. Hopwood and a unique collection of 'non-believed' memories submitted anonymously by the public. The project evocatively reflects on the way we creatively reconstruct our sense of the past, while providing insight into the often humorous, obscure and uncomfortable things people have misremembered.

 

Hopwood frequently collaborates with cognitive neuroscientists to revisit key memory experiments, reflecting on the history and consequences of this fascinating field of scientific research. False Memory Archive has been exhibited at the Mead Gallery Warwick, Talbot Rice Gallery Edinburgh, The Exchange Penzance, Freud Museum London, Carroll/Fletcher London, Wellcome Collection London, Schunck Heerlen, ADM Gallery Singapore,  CCCB Barcelona, Espacio Fundación Telefónica Madrid and Science Gallery Bengaluru.
