In my pitch-dark studio I double expose expired large format slide film using lasers projected through prisms, and masking portions using magnets, plant material and my body. After many years striving for technical perfection I have found it freeing to break the traditional rules. I am intrigued by the process of fumbling through the dark, as it introduces elements that are out of my control. Merging this way of making and childhood memories I seek to visually explore home in rural Maine. The double-exposures create unexpected colors and markings, transforming the film into unique objects. The process enables the images take on the appearance of a vague memory.
