from the series Iconography, 2013 Photograph

Kasia Wozniak is fascinated by the idea of creating a photographic image that is permanent and fragile, encapsulating the bespoke element of the photograph created once and only once, in the moment never to be repeated. Simultaneously, she is concerned with the relationship between photographer, sitter and the viewer. Her work questions the authenticity of the image and how we view photographs today. Intrigued by how the photographic image can become an object in its own right in the age of digital image making. Kasia works predominantly with the wet plate collodion process. Kasia Wozniak is a Polish photographer, born in 1983, who lives and works in London.
