Amazing handmade photographs unlike anything you’ve ever seen!

Posted on 28 February 2013 by

Check out this short video (9:19) on photographer Ian Ruhter. I think you’ll find it fascinating and inspiring. Ian hand makes his photographs using a wet plate collodion process with a giant camera housed in the back of a truck! Each photographic image is unique and cannot be repeated. I love his passion and dedication to his vision.

This is a wonderful insight into the creative process. I NEED to get back into the darkroom to make some photograms!

Mark Rothko – Expressing Human Emotions Through Abstraction

Posted on 25 February 2013 by

“I’m not an abstractionist. I’m not interested in the relationship of color or form or anything else. I’m interested only in expressing basic human emotions: tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so on.” – Mark Rothko

Experimental Photograms Exploring the Nature of Space, Time, Energy, and Matter

Posted on 21 February 2013 by

“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.” – Albert Einstein

I’ve been adding some photograms from my MFA thesis show Ions in the Ether to this gallery. The work consists of experimental photograms exploring the nature of space, time, energy, and matter. I took my inspiration from Einstein’s theory of relativity, quantum physics, string theory, alchemy and mysticism. All of the images are cameraless photograms made in the darkroom using light and photographic papers, film and light sensitized metal plates.

For more information on this work I invite you to read my Artist Statement or view the gallery.
