Work Details
In the summer of 2022, I had the opportunity to create a piece of work using the cyanotype technique. I placed the work outdoors in the sunlight, aiming to capture the sky exactly on the surface. However, after a series of trial and error, my working process became rough. Consequently, 'the real me' was imprinted on the work.
One existence is a unity of two sides. Our bodies are also entirely interconnected, forming a single, unified whole. Yet, when we rely solely on 'visual' judgement, we tend to focus only on the 'surface'. Various people gather around this work... the scene will be made possible precisely because each individual is alive. There is no single answer to this question.
