Big Heads Project Statement |
|
This project continues along a series of projects in the late 90s and early 2000s when I worked a lot with the paper negative technique. I was draw to this technique for its resemblence to the look of etchings while remaining a purely photographic technique. In this series, I felt it helped give the photographs a weighty quality and looking at the images as I made them I began to think of Frankenstein and the terror and despondency the monster felt at discovering others found him hideous. |
