When you look outside your window, what do you see? If someone peers into your window, what would they see? Windows represent a number of things, from transparency, light, and naked truth to privacy and security. The collection of works in this exhibit asks you to think about our world through unique and varied perspectives.

Each real-life photograph from a major metropolitan area -- some that might seem strangely familiar -- is framed in a salvaged window that draws you into its particular world. The series plays with your understanding of size, perspective, place, and emotion. “Looking Glass” captures the joys, fascinations, fears, and curiosities of experiencing life in the city.
