Untitled

I’m working on a photographic piece for a charity art auction being held at our office. From its conception it was going to be a Polaroid composite of some sort. A couple of weeks ago I started thinking about visual themes and the type of substrate to mount the images onto. Then I had a revelation. Instead of using one of my trusty SX-70 cameras, I bought a Polaroid iZone. Totally low-res, self-adhesive instant photography in lime green plastic. I’m not stopping after the auction either. Forget the Post-It note reminders plastered on the monitor, we’re going completely image-based from now on.

Self Portrait

Self portrait using the iZone. I shaved off my beard and moustache last August. Maybe I should get off the pot and update the moderately self-aggrandizing icon at the top of the page.
