The University of Mississippi Museum<\/strong> is hosting a new exhibit by artist and photographer Kent Rogowski<\/strong> of Brooklyn<\/strong>, New York<\/strong>. The exhibit is titled Love=Love<\/strong>\u00a0and consists of collages created from jigsaw puzzle pieces.<\/span><\/p>\n

Surprisingly, most puzzle manufacturers use a similar if not exact pattern to cut each of their puzzles.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe think of a puzzle piece as something unique and individual that has a specific place,\u201d said Rogowski \u201cThe thought that it might fit somewhere else and form something new and unexpected interested me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Rogowski went into the project unsure of how far he would be able to take it.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWith \u2018Love=Love,\u2019 I think there is some surprise that all the puzzles fit together, but then another level of taking the bland imagery and creating something with an enormous amount of energy and movement,\u201d said Rogowski. \u201cI was thinking about two things coming together and creating something new and unique. Kind of like a relationship, where two people connect and form a unique bond. I thought about puzzle pieces and how you think they are unique and assumed that this probably wasn\u2019t actually true.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Rogowski\u2019s work extends beyond his puzzle work, including a documentary he premiered at the Museum of Modern Art<\/strong> in New York.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The University of Mississippi Museum is open from 10 am\u20136 pm Tuesday\u2013Saturday. Admission is free. Visit the Museum\u2019s website here for more information.\u00a0\"The<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
