I currently work with paper, anthotype printing and reworking past prints (also referred to as chine-collé). For this project, I have used an old Canon Powershot to record placed items (a mix of domestic and crafted) within the confines of our light-restricted, family garage-come-studio. Central to these conceptual images is handmade paper (recycled wastepaper). Each paper form is inspired by an object that was found in the surrounding landscape. Could be in or outside space.
