A set of photographic collages, constructed in-camera.
Found analogue photographs, from various sources, were re-photographed and enlarged to become backdrops for 3D arrangements of found objects including light-bulbs, lenses, acrylic sheets, and film filters. The layering of translucent and other materials extended from earlier experiments with photogrammetry. The photo/sculpture hybrids were then rephotographed from above, echoing the process of copy-stand photography.
The resulting images distil perceptual slippages between analogue/digital, real/reproduced, 2D/3D, and confuse foreground and background. The works also create tension between the horizontal and vertical planes, and are displayed somewhere between the two states, on leaning, rough-cut panels.
