DESCRIPTION
This artwork was inspired by the study of the sea, movement of the tides and evolution.
TECHNIQUE
Lunar Lobtailing was created by photographing a hand-cut collage of illustrations of a whale and mountains and photographs of the surface of the moon and a flock of birds. 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 pressed dry.
