Portarretratos de bronce / Bronze portrait frames

Dado como están hechos estos portarretratos, no admiten fotografías, negando así su propósito principal. Son en vez monumentos para el mismo acto de recordar, y tratan de reconocer su importancia independiente de un recuerdo en particular. Los hice como regalos, para ser colocados junto a otros retratos. Gracias a la aleación que utilicé para hacerlos, son casi indestructibles, y probablemente sobrevivirán a su dueño.

Given how these portrait frames are made, no photographs can be placed in them, therefore denying their main purpose. Instead, they become monuments for the act of remembering itself, and mean to acknowledge its importance independently of a particular memory. I made these to give them away as gifts for people to place alongside their existing frames. Thanks to the alloy used to make them, they are almost indestructible, and will certainly outlive any of their owners.
