Description: Rydet had already reached an advanced age?the concept for the 'Sociological Record' came into focus when Rydet was 67?when she began to work on what would become her magnum opus: the 'Sociological Record', a sweepingly comprehensive photographic?portrait? of Polish domestic life that would come to span decades, regions, and even countries. And yet for all of its epic scope and panoramic comprehensiveness, the 'Record' is comprised of portraits that often feel as intimate (and sometimes as endearingly awkward) as those carried within a locket worn around the neck, or else to be found stored in shoeboxes hibernating atop wardrobes and at the backs of closets.
