Susan Berger
Mohawk Hudson Region Art Exhibit

“The piece is from the Memoir series. It is snapshots found in a photo album. The middle section is of rug hooking techniques win varied and vibrant colors. The top portion is of black and white images on a family cruise more defined as at the time of the photos. The bottom is in sepia tone images as faded over time and loss of the images and time plays a role and maybe the existence is less there. These images of photographs are encased or enshrined in boxes of the same dimensions. The middle section is the swimming pool onboard a cruise ship and the other is one sister in front of a large food display portraying that time of year of the journey on the cruise: Easter.”
