I think I will start this month’s newsletter off by saying this is where I am: looking, waiting, gathering, and culling through images to see what there is in my archives that can be made anew in physical form.
I really like the “pocket”, and the color images you had in it. A visual surprise, acting like an exclamation mark in the middle of an ongoing story. Well done!
The translucent quality is present in hand, but most certainly enhanced with the camera flash. I have been thinking about photo albums or rather albums as I believe when we say "photo album" we automatically think of the family album though I have been considering the album in its broad sense (not excluding the family album, but rather not that specifically) so that this paper reminds you of that is very interesting! The paper choice was both what they had available at the dollar store (it's sketching paper) and then working purposefully with inherent qualities. The image quality is certainly not the same as a higher quality paper, but again working with the limitations and I think for these images which have soft focus, grain and lack of details it married well.
Love seeing all of the images laid out!
Thank you 😊
Very clever ideas here. Best for a great show.
Thank you 😊
Super interesting processus . It is great you will have a show, where will it be? Although it is too far of course for me to go
It will be at the community museum in my hometown of Cornwall Ontario 😁
Good things coming from your hometown 👏👏👏

Yes! That was very much the purpose of it, I am happy you picked up on that through the pictures alone 😊
