ART

Towards

The series Towards: is an attempt to express the intangible emotional layers that augment the experience – and engineering feat – of modern air travel. A sense of escape, possibility, unknown, and other such evocations of travel become visible in these photographs via light leaks and aurora-esque colours. Mirroring the idea of unfolding and unpredictability, Towards: uses no digital editing. The dreamscape we tend to experience around flying is instead depicted through boiling 35mm film in saltwater, citrus, vinegar, and sunflowers, drying it out, and waiting to see what develop
