This is a photograph of multiple contact sheets from a film roll. It shows several strips of film negatives laid out in a collage-like manner. Each strip contains a series of sequential frames. The frames document an art exhibition or gallery setting featuring artwork displayed on walls, including paintings and sculptures. The photographs are in black and white. The layout of these contact sheets suggests a narrative or sequence of events captured during the art viewing.
