Solitary Confinements: A Family Portrait (detail: Mother, Brother
Miriam Schaer. Solitary Confinements: A Family Portrait (detail: Mother, Brother, 2001.
Description:
The family is where we learn who we are, where we begin to figure out relationships and find our way in the world. Part of this involves the stories we tell ourselves to develop a sense of self, and the stories we hide from ourselves because of what they reveal. The interior life of the family and its relationship to our public life are what Solitary Confinements attempts to explore.
