Mary Frey’s “Real Life Dramas” contains photographs that seem to be from ordinary, banal, everyday scenes of middle-class American life. However, none of the photographs is “real.” Of the work, Frey says, “These photographs, which appear documentary, are entirely preconceived and set-up. Their appearance is meant to hover somewhere between reality and soap opera in order to question the ‘truth’ of the camera’s vision.”
