  • X Ray Terrestrial No. 6
    by Jane Linders

    US$3.99–US$28.50

    My current passion is an alternative photographic process called Polaroid transfers. Each transfer is hand-made by the photographer using specific materials and equipment to achieve a desired effect. A transparency is projected on to professional Polaroid print film and as development begins, the print and chemicals are prematurely separated. The image is transferred on to dampened watercolor paper for a unique image which has a dated, artistic photo-painting appearance. Exposure, pressure, time, paper and other variables make each print an original mono-print. My most recent series of Polaroid transfers is titled , “X-RAY TERRESTRIALS”. Double exposed slides of skulls from animals , coupled with illustrations of dental training transparencies culled from a recent St. Louis dumpster dive, yield macabre transmogrification from bone to alien. At. First glance, these small Polaroid transfers seem to portray a menagerie of grotesque creatures, which evoke responses of discomfort and disgust. By depicting the deformed and macabre, Linders illuminates the darkest corners of the mind and reveals her fascination with death, bones, skulls and teeth.

  • Line Dry
    by Sarah Lipow

    US$3.99–US$91.20

    f/9 1/400 ISO 400 / Canon EOS Rebel XSI

  • A photographic image created using Van Dyke Formula on cartridge paper. Unfortunately the text isn’t as strong on the original so I had to do some colour dodging on photoshop to make it the image I had intended. Apart of me loves the process but at the same time the constantly changing factors involved in the process can make creating the perfect image very frustrating to achieve. Cartridge paper becomes very delicate after all the washes and fixes it had to go through so I ended up with two images being utterly destroyed, one unharmed and this one with the rips and crumbles which became my favorite.

  • Groom
    by Marie Monroe

    US$3.99–US$91.20

    in scraping emulsion to alter polaroids i used this surface, kept it on the work table and used it for notes. i packed it away for about 26 years and just pulled it out. it was mistakenly scooped up and stored with ‘finer’ prints. this is the only one i liked today. simmering works!

I liked them.. they have this spooky lonely vibe to them.. sad but not, so fragile yet stubbornly strong clawing their way thru the grass to the sunlight… / plants are so trippy :)
