Description
With digital photography thriving and traditional film processes beginning to fade out, this artist wanted to bring those two different techniques together to form photographs with a harmonious balance of both. The creative process consisted of generating a theme, producing film and digital based negatives, and using these negatives to form prints in both the darkroom and on the computer. Negatives were created using digital images and manipulated in the computer. They were then taken into the darkroom and printed using alterative printing techniques. Other negatives and prints where created by the camera and scanned into the computer, manipulated, and then reprinted. The result was images having both the feel of the new and traditional techniques.
