This series emerges from an experimental photographic process that involves direct manipulation of the light-sensitive emulsion on photographic paper. Using techniques that apply water pressure and high temperatures, the emulsion fractures, triggering a continuous, uninterrupted development across the paper’s surface. Over time in the studio, the light-sensitive sheet absorbs environmental shifts, capturing subtle variations in the weather and transient marks. Layers are added by creating photograms with marbled prints on transparent paper, leaving behind ephemeral, viscous textures and ghostly impressions. Through this open-ended process, the work explores photographic documentation without the use of a camera, focusing on the interplay of light, time, and the material impermanence inherent in both the technique and its results.
