“A lens for detail; photographer focuses on groups to make individual characteristics stand out.” -- Manisha Aggarwal-Schifellite, The Harvard Gazette;
Patterns resonate and reveal
themselves in this unique photographic essay featuring objects from the
six museums associated with the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture
(HMSC). The museums' encyclopaedic collections hold great significance
in documenting our world - Typology: Collections at the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture shows us that they are visually captivating as well.
Photographer
and museologist Diana Zlatanovski explores the museums' storage
cabinets to assemble collections of related objects, which she calls
typologies. Seeing similar objects in multitudes compels us to study the
details of each singular object and how it differs from the last.
Through her striking images, Zlatanovski hints at the awe-inspiring
collections held within the museums' storerooms and encourages us to
look closely and learn more about their significance.
