About
This installation uses objects from the Hood Museum of Art’s collection to challenge the traditional understanding of currency. Drawing on examples from across time and cultures to offer multiple perspectives, the installation asks audiences to question how a society defines “money” and its purpose.
This installation was organized by the Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth, and generously supported by the Harrington Gallery Fund.
