In Maggie’s work she has a way of creating photos into dream like illustrations. In her process she scans random items and old photos into her computer then takes the old photos and repair all the damage to them than afterwords change the color of the background and they’re clothes then add in the random items throughout the photo making it look more like a dream than reality.
Jerry Uelsmann Small Woods Where I Met Myself, 1967
In Jerrys process what he does is takes a photographic paper then put them in these machines that produces light on them and takes it to another to add in layers where he can blend them together. Also a way to make them fade is by taking a black sheet of paper and waving it around so it fades then after he got all of his layers on the paper he then puts it in a solution where the image becomes visible.
One thought on “Jerry & Maggie”
So Uelsmann uses darkroom processes with film and photographic paper and Taylor uses Photoshop. Very different process but surrealistic approaches to content.
