Memories fade and new experiences can re-frame and decontextualize old memories. Some become more valuable over time while others become shells of their former impressions. Vacant impressions that serve only as reminders of the memories of time passed.

Wish You Were Here is an inaccurate record meeting unreliable memories. Nothing seems real, but it’s all oddly familiar. And you begin to miss a time/place to which you can never return, or never was at all.

Derek Munn is an alum of Old Dominion University (BFA) The School of Visual Arts in New York City (MFA) and Cooper Union (Post-Grad Certificate). He is currently teaching design courses at Old Dominion University, and is a freelance graphic designer and lettering artist.
