Anacostia Portraits is a participatory art project that used a historic photographic process to create a visual archive celebrating the people who make up the Anacostia region of the District of Columbia. In this revival of the 19th-century tintype, individuals with a connection to the community were invited to portrait sessions with photographer Elena Volkova at the Anacostia Arts Center. Each sitting produced two portraits, one for the participant and one for the final installation.
Anacostia Portraits is supported by a grant from the Corcoran Women's Committee and ARCH Development Corporation.
