Van dyke brown and multi-layered gum bichromate print using handmade pigments: brick, ash and lampblack
'Offering' is a series of alternative photography prints that depict the interior of the house after the fire. The gum bichromate process allows me to create images using pigments of my own creation. These pigments are made of bricks, lampblack, a pigment made through the incomplete combustion of a flame, and ash from the remains of my previous body of work. These pigments are of the house, of fire and of myself.
