ELMO'S CLOSET: History Through Things

Elmo Del Rosario, the Residency's namesake, is a prolific accumulator of objects. Things accumulated over decades, provides insight into the personal history of the man responsible for the house as it is today. 

This project features photo documentation of Elmo's clothes, keepsakes and random multitudes in danger of disintegrating against the effects of time. The goal is to eventually digitize the entire collection.
