About my artwork
I work on the border between photography and painting, employing the techniques of both to create images that belong to neither medium. I make photographic prints without the intermediary of either camera or negative, directly exposing the object through the focusing lense onto what becomes a unique ilfochrome print. In this respect my work goes against the grain of much of contemporary photographic practice, which is dominated by the reproducibility of the medium and its digital manipulation.
Artists I like
Andres Serrano, Joel-Peter Witkin, Giger, Francis Bacon, Caravaggio, Gericault, Frida Kahlo, Vermeer, Andre Kertesz, Robert Mapplethorpe, Adam Fuss ......
Thanks for that Jo. Good to be your friend. I think we are working the same area - " the border between photography and painting" in very different ways! Brill!
