+ About the work

Margarita Gluzberg’s sphere, a black and white photograph of one of her drawings, with each print in the edition individually hand tinted using pencils made in Eastern Europe in the 1950s, proposes a kind of time travel through the photographic lens, and the resurrection of materials from another era.
