Found and not forgotton...






These images are from a project I'm working on using old 'found' negatives. I bought a set of 5 negatives about a month ago from Spitalfields market in London. The project has been on-going and has changed a lot since it started. I posted some photographs before, where I had painted on the developer, these are from the same project. I've shifted the project quite a bit since then, as I could see that the project wasn't really going anywhere. Here I have crumpled the photo paper before I exposed the negatives, to distort the image and to have a similar hide/reveal as the painted on developer. I then photographed the paper crumpled up in the studio, to show the photograph as an object. Enjoy.
