Fine Art Photo Series
The photographs in this series are double exposures made in-camera during a tour of Italy. Like the photos in my "x2EXP" project, a roll of film would be shot, rewound, and forgotten for about a week before being re-fed through the camera and re-shot without remembering or caring about what was already on the film.
The resulting images are unplanned, unexpected layerings of people, places, and things historically linked, though temporally out-of-place. They have the ability to act as a kind of small, segmented, historiographical map of an important piece of Western culture - an accelerated and perhaps slightly haunting display of change, and a way of looking forwards and backwards at the same time.
