This special "flash" round of cellphone photography translations was conducted as part of the "Telephone" exhibition at Commonwealth Studios on June 21, 2019. Each participant was given 10-30 minutes to create and send their "translation." All photos were taken June 21 or 22, 2019, in Salt Lake City.
