VIEWFINDER CLASH
2021-2020
Module from transparent colored Acrylic
Gelatin Silver print on glass

Viewfinder Clash continues the series Viewfinder and Viewfinder Mock-Ups, reflecting on the act of photographing and framing an image.
It explores the beginning of photography by creating a mock-up-module related to the daguerreotype cameras and late 19th century studio cameras and by approaching an old technique - the gelatin silver print on glass, using glass coated by hand with liquid emulsion.
The negative on glass is inserted on the architectural module realized from transparent colored Acrylic, in various shades of blue, green, brown.
​Viewfinder Clash is a series in progress.
​Options of display using the light setting. The shadow becomes a construction in itself, which accompanies the camera box.
