Departure I

Unique photography collection / sculpture
Anna Khavro, 2024
Edition: 1/1
Signed by artist.

3 photographs (photograms* - light paintings) placed on separate cards of old fine art paper and between 2 horizontal raw oak wood*** blocks. On top of the sculpture lies a piece of black old drift wood ( unknown type of wood - destroyed and at the same time carved by rain, wind... and the path it has taken over a long time). All of these creates a unique sculpture and a three-dimensional image at the same time.

All photographs (1/1 gelatin silver prints** - photograms*) are made in a darkroom on expired photographic paper from the 80's. Toned, treated for archival permanence, air-dried and heat-pressed.) Each numbered and signed on verso.

----------

* (The photogram is an image made without a camera by placing an object directly on to the surface of a light-sensitive material and then exposing it to light. Since the dawn of photography it has been explored by practitioners such as Henry Talbot, Man Ray, László Moholy-Nagy (p. e.), keen to expand the boundaries of representation.)

** (The gelatin silver process is the basic chemical process used in black and white photography. The whole process takes place in a photo darkroom and the photo is hand-made by the artist.)

*** (An oak wood is a very hard and long-lived material that does not change under the influence of weather conditions - resistant to rain and moisture (for example). Very durable.
