We are pleased to announce that the work of PMG artist sara angelucci will appear in NATURE FACTORY, a group exhibition of contemporary drawings, sculptures, and photographs that work to reveal nature through artificiality, truth, and humour.
SARA ANGELUCCI Angelucci’s work has developed from an examination of the family archive to a broader interpretation of anonymous/found photographs. The photographs in Aviary are made by combining photographs of endangered or extinct North American birds with anonymous nineteenth century ‘cartes-de-visite’ portraits-they portray creatures about to become ghosts. Angelucci’s work foregrounds the cultural role vernacular images play in framing particular stories, creating histories, and memorialization.
