Screen printing of a photo of me when I was about four years old. The screen print is gray paint on hand made paper. The paper is made out of old newspaper. Another twist on vernacular photography and memory, identity, and ephemeral materials.

THE NO-MIND NOT-THINKS NO-THINGS, POPLUF by Doug and Mike Starn. Two more of my favorite artists. I am always in awe of their process and ability to alter a photograph and paper. Check out their website for more of their work. dmstarn.com

Back to bleaching found photos. In particular this photo of a young girl. Just showing a progression of how I work. The process of removing parts of a photograph in several ways. Also adding layers of depth by stacking multiple ripped sections of the same image.

Working with bleach.
