Project Two: Last week I visited a lovely artist friend of mine at her residency in a crypt in Hastings. We both have respect for each other’s work and keep saying we should collaborate on a project. Generously she has […]

“Through photographs, the world becomes a series of unrelated, freestanding particles … The camera makes reality atomic.” – Sonntag, On Photography, 1977 Generating video sequences from my slide photographs – the ‘animation’ does not create an illusion of movement; it […]
I attempted my first cyanotypes today, and despte the sun they took hours to expose. I’m interested to know if I can use the treated paper in a pinhole camera, but it appears that I need dazzling sunlight to achieve […]
A Rebours, by J.K Huysmann. Added To My Library by Michael Wood, artist
