FORGOTTEN TIMES
$1,600.00
Limited Edition Platinum & Palladium prints 11x15
Finding this abandoned chair made me ponder our vulnerability, how time catches up to us, and how material things often outlive us. I wonder about the miles that car seat traveled before meeting its fate in the desert, the road trips it witnessed. Now, all those stories are abandoned too.
Limited Edition Prints: Only 25 prints will be available for purchase. Each platinum palladium print is meticulously crafted using the Malde-Ware process and printed on Revere Platinum paper, which perfectly complements the noble metals used in platinum palladium printing. Every print is unique due to subtle variations in the paper, chemistry, and humidity during the process.
Print sizes refer to the paper size and include a white border that is signed and numbered. Please note that these are unframed prints. The width of the borders may vary to maintain the original image ratio and avoid any cropping.
All my limited prints utilize the time-honored technique of Platinum palladium printing, a traditional method with roots predating silver gelatin prints in photographic history. In this process, prints are exposed to UV light, originally harnessed from the sun, using "contact printing." This entails having a photographic negative as large as the final print. The limitations posed by this method persisted until the digital age, which ushered in the creation of "digital negatives." These digital counterparts, printable at various sizes, allow the production of Platinum palladium prints up to 40" wide.
The uniqueness of Platinum palladium prints stands out in both appearance and performance, unrivaled by modern printing techniques. Art collectors are drawn to these prints for their enduring quality and aesthetic appeal. The tonal range of Platinum palladium prints surpasses that of contemporary digital inkjet printers, offering a palette from warm black to reddish-brown, complemented by a range of grays in the midtones. Pure platinum (platinotype) prints exhibit higher contrast and cooler tones, while pure palladium (palladio type) prints tend to display a warmer appearance with deeper blacks and softer highlights. The combination of platinum and palladium creates a harmonious balance between these two aesthetics and tonalities, making it applicable to certain images.
Notably, Platinum and palladium prints stand as the most durable among photographic processes. The stability of the platinum (and its counterpart palladium) element against chemical reactions exceeds even that of gold, ensuring the longevity and preservation of the prints over time.
