Well, this is what I’ve been working on recently. This is a photopolymergravure of a photograph I took in Portland, Oregon, in 2007, when I was dicking around in the United States that one time. Taken with my trusty (god I love the thing) Nikon FM2n, with I think a Sigma 35-135mm f/3.5-4.5 lens? On Agfa APX 400.
Another one of those images I just haven’t gotten around to printing. I’ve done some more of these since then, which I’ll scan next week hopefully, but this was the first that worked so lovely. After a good 2 months of initial failure, it’s nice to have something to show for it.
This particular image was an edition of 10, with an Artist’s Proof and a Printer’s Proof. The two proofs have since been framed, and the Artist’s proof (the one I get to keep) is in an exhibition opening tomorrow. That’s kinda neat.
It’s the Youthscape 2010 exhibition, at the RSASA Gallery. Level 1, Institute Building, on the corner of North Terrace and Kintore Avenue.
You know the war memorial on North Terrace? Opposite that, next to the state library. Opens at 2PM tomorrow (Sunday, 27th of June) and runs until the 18th of July. Pop by and have a look, there’s going to be a lot of interesting work there.
