black and white, 2019 (ongoing)

Silver gelatin on fibre based paper, 13cm x 18cm 9 photographic black and white prints show a 4x5" negative in various states during the gradual removal of its silver gelatin layer. A photographic black and white negative stores the information in a light-sensitive silver gelatin emulsion. Completely exposed it is black (leads to a white appearance on the photo paper), unexposed it is transparent (shows black on the photo paper). The infinite possibilities of black and white compositions are each unique and through their formation part of the constantly enhancing universe of images.
