Dina Mitrani Gallery joins us in the Design District for the month of October with a temporary exhibition “Altered Image: Women Telling Stories by Combining Photography with Mixed Media.”
The exhibition brings together twenty-one women artists who use the photographic medium as a departure point to tell their stories. The materials they combine with their photographs vary, as do the narratives and meanings they aim to depict. Many start with vintage photographs, some from old family albums, and they manually stitch, cut, and paint the images, creating layers of texture and symbolic stories.
