Jess - Limited Edition of 10 Print

All of the images in this collection were captured with a Lytro Gen 1 Field of Light camera under identical studio conditions – a single point light source, an entirely black field - only the subjects changed. All of the subjects were volunteers - everyday people drawn to the project by seeing sample works, having an interest in participating in the project and in seeing how they, themselves, would be revealed. The final images have been desaturated to mitigate variance in color rendition, but little retouching has been done - allowing the subjects to reveal themselves. The images are sometimes abstract, sometimes explicit, but are more evocative than suggestive. They demonstrate beauty in small detail as well as the whole of the human form. Original images are 1084 pixels square. In print: four inches square – an appropriate size for intimate works. They are printed with archival inks on Epson museum papers at approximately 5”square, and are signed on the reverse.
