North Brother Island Prints



Prints from North Brother Island in unique artifact frames.


In 2008 I salvaged six oxidized copper X-ray holders dating to the late 1930s from the tuberculosis pavilion on North Brother Island. These unique artifacts, utilized in the operatory and exam areas of the hospital, were transformed by an expert woodworker into shadowbox frames designed to hold 11"x14" prints. The frames and prints contained within are museum quality, and completely archival. UV-protective plexiglass is used as glazing for the pieces, and the wood of the frames is lined with aluminum tape, preventing any acid leakage. The prints are archival C-prints on Kodak Endura paper, hinge-mounted with gummed linen tape onto acid-free foamcore. An acid-free white mat finishes the piece, and each frame is backed with acid-free paper and galvanized hardware. Six images from the island were chosen to fill the frames, and each is being offered as a one-of-a-kind piece.
