C. Lewis argues that stories are not just for children; they are also a meaningful way for adults to explore the world. He highlights the importance of the stories and memories that influenced our childhood, and their vital role in the creative process of adults. The 'Old Enough to Read Fairy Tales Again' art exhibition aims to explore personal visions of childhood, imaginative innocence, nostalgia for one's place of birth and an everlasting love for all that was dear. Through figurative artistic representations, it explores human duality and the inner conflicts we carry within us. Landscapes are associated with memories and plant symbolism to highlight the passage of time and the ephemerality of life. In popular culture, the 'forget-me-not' flower is associated with spiritual and emotional connotations linked to memories and the plea not to be forgotten. In the contemporary context, childhood begs us not to forget it, representing the essence of who we are today.
