Title of Artwork: Traces of Existence V
Art Description: This was captured with a film camera and developed in a dark room.
Everything leaves a trace, even if it does not last. Abstract shadows, the unknown source outside the frame, provide ambiguous traces of their origin. Reality becomes obscured. Imagination and reality intertwine. Everyone perceives the world differently and through capturing ambiguous shapes and forms, I wanted to explore the individual experience of perception in reality through a medium that captures and recreates versions of life’s traces.
