Dark Negatives

The qualities of the infra red film with its ability to capture light the human eye can’t see and its high density of silver content, produces otherworldly luminously dark imagery. A choice was made to present the negatives themselves as captivating images in their own right, that reflect light back to the viewer.

When shown each image had a torch and a magnifying glass attached to encourage the viewer to investigate the play of light and the detail large format film can capture.
