Photographic Essence (Working Title)

A process based project utilizing photographic materials to create non-photographic images. The process entails sheets of darkroom printing paper, masked off and partially exposed to light, partially sanded with sand paper, then fixed in a hypo solution saturated with steel wool, frozen and thawed, and then copper toned. The resulting images are then scanned and cropped to create compositions, which are then digitally printed out and coated in a thin layer of epoxy resin to create a tangible viewing experience that one can hold and feel.
