I am thrilled that all four of my entries into this exhibition have been selected from over 7300 entries.
This is a direct positive print made from photographic paper in an 8×10 camera. The image is unique, there is no negative so cannot be reproduced.
It was taken during my residency at the Willa Cather Foundation in 2019.
A very difficult medium to master, with a lot of technical processes to get right. It worked perfectly for this one.
Poverty breeds time. Time to contemplate.
Modern trains are clinical, cold, uninviting spaces. A languid, warm, time-extending, British summer evening is one of the most inviting spaces. The yearning for one from the other.
