Assignment 2: Photograms - Flickering Recollection


My theme for both my photograms was memory. This specific one was supposed to show more faded memories. I used a transparency of a digital picture to print an inverse image in the darkroom. I also used a transparency to add words (which I later went over with, again, using a calligraphy pen). The bottom left corner has a worn look, achieved through the chemigram process with rubber cement. Finally I added some red ink and stome solvent transfers (contac paper) of magazine articles. It turned out slightly more morbid than I had hoped, but I still feel that my theme of memory holds up!
