​Art made with light

(Sunlight and silver, Under the Sea Edition)

Art Made with Light is a new collection of cyanotype on silver gelatin photograms. The three-step process requires thoughtful planning and time spent both in a traditional darkroom and outside under the sun. For this body of work, sea whips gathered from local beaches are combined with seashell x-rays and other collected items to create images that are eye-catching and unique.  Framed photograms in the series also include the original, found sea whip that was used for the B&W portion of the photogram. Add the sea whip to an existing collection, display it as an object of décor or return it to nature for it’s next, yet unknown purpose.

For further details on the cyanotype on silver gelatin process, please see the Sunlight and Silver gallery.

Works from the Art Made with Light series are available at Art in Bloom Gallery in Wilmington, NC.
