Unique chemical darkroom prints on Fiber-based Silver Gelatin paper, various sizes
Each one of a kind work in Pressing Blooms is created through shaping gelatin silver fiber-based photographic paper into bouquet-like forms and pouring photochemical developer into the various folds and openings.
This chemical darkroom experiment produces imaginary winged insects particular to each piece. Through this work I learned about Entomancy, a method of divination based on the behavior and appearance of insects and born out of the perceived alchemy of metamorphosis.
