Encyclopedia of Things

Inspiring conceptual lens-based artist Elisabeth Smolarz (Morgan Lehman Gallery, PBS Documentary) shares her ongoing photography project, “Encyclopedia of Things.” She documents the most critical moments in the lives of individuals by aiding in selecting their most cherished objects, which transform their personal belongings into art installations that embody the identities and personal narratives of their owners. In 2014, two years after Hurricane Sandy destroyed the lives of thousands, Smolarz conceived this project and visited people in their homes. Eight years later, a selection of over 100 portraits from the series was published in her monograph “Encyclopedia of Things.”
