Palimpsest: Layers of Time

Palimpsest: Layers of Time

Presented by Sandy Spring Museum at Sandy Spring Museum

An exhibit of new photo-collages that are an unsentimental look at the cultural history of various locations in the Sandy Spring, Maryland area. This is her first work examining an area that was until recently primarily rural. She is examining changes in land use as a result of shifting societal values, desires, government actions, and market forces and blending archival and contemporary photographs, along with historical newspaper articles, maps, advertisements, ephemera, and text into one final image for each site. Using layers of various opacities, she conveys a sense that the past never goes away and continues to influence the present.
