Rashmi Talpade Artist Talk at Real Art Ways

Rashmi Talpade: Every Little Thing Artist Talk
Friday, March 3 | 6pm

HARTFORD - Real Art Ways will present an artist talk with Rashmi Talpade on Friday, March 3rd at 6pm. Every Little Thing is an exhibition of Talpade's photo collages. The exhibition will be on view through Sunday, March 5th. Gallery hours 2-9pm Wednesday-Sunday. Gallery admission is free.

Comprised of work selected from a recent series, Every Little Thing depicts industrial relics and abandoned factories. Rashmi creates her collages by assembling fragments from a personal collection of photographs. The experiences of her work changes from different vantages, as each collage is made up of hundreds of images.

From Rashmi Talpade, "The photo collages document the contrasts of the time we live in through seemingly inconsequential footprints, including abandoned objects, less-than-pristine city sidewalks, and rusted bits of metal. More than simply a collection of decay, Every Little Thing shows an unexpected and radiant beauty to items both natural and manmade which surround us in our daily life.”
