In this project, the audience members are invited to become visual anthropologists. What do the portraits of people, ideas and scenes reveal about a sample of local culture and society? In each piece, details based on observation and analysis of the subject simultaneously capture a specific individual or concept as well as a broader lifestyle. As a whole, the growing inventory format of the installation unveils the nature and complexity of a community. The represented people are striking in unusual ways and together reflect cultural diversity and environmental awareness. For example the "Essex hot tub" is an absolutely unique space and stands alone as a micro-culture. The scenes and portraits are made of sewn and glued recycled material. The hand made quality adds another layer of singularity to each element.
