DESCRIPTION
This work was inspired by the importance of friendship, sisterhood and female solidarity.
TECHNIQUE
Lunar Etiquette (Square) was created by photographing a hand-cut collage of vintage fashion portraiture and the surface of the moon. The digital negative was then contact printed onto paper that had been hand-brushed with chemicals, before drying in a dark room. Once exposed to light, the piece was washed to develop a cyan blue colour and hand finished with crushed petal pigments and 22ct yellow gold leaf.
