"Nothing lasts forever, and memories fade, but in the beautiful blur that is nostalgia there is more to be discovered." - Rosa Leff
In her meticulously hand-cut streetscapes, Rosa Leff explores changing cities and the concept of time. Her subject matter is drawn from photos she took during her travels, including the destinations of Japan, China, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Leff will exhibit work she made pre-pandemic based on these images alongside new work based on the same photos. With a post-lockdown eye, she has discovered new details in the source material that were seemingly insignificant before and are now beautifully intriguing.
This exhibition is supported by Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission and Maryland Department of Commerce.
