Description

Irina Rozovsky elevates photographs she takes in her day-to-day life to the status of precious objects by pairing images with old frames found in antique stores and on eBay. Her Miracle Center series is, she explains, an “invitation to play with time and visual space.” The images are transformed by the frame, influenced by its color, shape, ornamentation, and the number of images it holds. She is particularly drawn to “travel frames,” compact frames that were intended to be carried during travel, thus keeping the tender feeling of home or another person close to heart.
