DescriptionPenny Harris's "Domestic Landscape Series" exploits the serendipity of the pinhole camera to evoke the complexity of family relationships. The components of the series, though strikingly different in mood, consistanly present multiple vantage points and a constantly shifting foreground in which individuals interact as a metaphor for domestic life.
