Technology as a Social Marker (Technology as a Social Marker of Race, Class, & Economics in Rochester, NY), an international online photography exhibition by Eric Kunsman opens on April 02, and will continue through May 02, 2022.
Eric Kunsman's visit to the American Philosophical Society's conservation lab changed his world. He noticed "Eastern State Warden's Logbook" and the warden's entries brought the Penitentiary to life for him. His work demonstrates a previous attempt at prison reform from the popular European model in the 1800's. The images help viewers to understand how many things have not changed over the passing of time, whether that relates to the crimes the prisoners committed or the conditions they face during incarceration.
