WHAT REMAINS

Immersed in the raw beauty of nature's transformation, I delve into the allure of beauty and chirality—a symphony captured on large format negative film. Observing the intricate allure within botanical states of transition. Amidst the process of decay, lies a mesmerizing beauty—a delicate dance of hues, textures, and graceful transitions. Through this series, I seek to unveil the character within the petals and foliage, portraying selected states of graceful transition within botanical metamorphosis, revealing the inherent elegance and asymmetry.

Archival carbon prints are produced using Kohlepigment Piezography K6. Piezography monochromatic inks and software produce what is unarguably the absolute highest standard in black and white printing. The striking visual characteristic is a result of the unique carbon pigments applied to a 100% cotton rag acid-free paper.

All images are printed on 100% cotton rag acid-free paper with an ultrasmooth surface. Giclée printing is a process that uses fade-resistant, archival inks and substrates that produce subtle tonal ranges and vivid colour expressions.

The Platinum Palladium process has its origins in the early 19th century. From an original negative, a new negative in the desired image size is produced. High quality watercolour paper is coated by hand with a solution of platinum, palladium and iron salts and exposed in contact with UV. Subsequently, the exposed paper is developed, clarified, watered and air-dried. Platinum and palladium metals are chemically more stable than silver or gold, suggesting that the shelf life of the platinum-palladium print is several hundred years.
