i got a present of two boxes of glass type negatives.
i bought some inkodye (red, blue and orange) after and used the cyanotype process to create this image. theres a few more i have done that i wish to upload once i get ahold of a scanner in dublin. these were done on fabriano paper but i’ve done some on water colour and next on cotton fabric or wood. this was blue mixed with orange hence the distorted effect. theres something i really like about found negatives of people i don’t know. its another play with this memento-mori theme i have been playing with.
there are plants on either side of the two girls also, only little shadows of them can be seen. the distorted effect was done by laying plastic on top of the image while it developed giving it a water-like warped look.
