Layered Cianotype
unique piece
size 15×21 cm
Layering upon layering, this is how this project, this journey, which is taking me far, is composed. Digging is an escape that has the solution within it. And so we run away and dig as deep as we can, sooner or later coming to appreciate the journey. The gift is this.

Imagine Narcissus, while you look at yourself in that mirror of water and you fall, you reconnect with the self that you were observing, but only by falling, there is no other way. Have you ever thought that being in the water is like being in another world, with other laws, and another ability to survive, so technically it is like not really being here. And if water is made of many drops, of many molecules that dance together, then it is conceivable that they can behave like the skin of an onion, enveloping everything inside itself and creating layers, layers that envelop or layers in which to look, like a small whirlpool that attracts everything. And in this tear in the paper as in the water the spectacle of life is staged, the life beneath the surface, beneath sociality and masks, life as it is felt only inside the water, when everything is muffled and full only of us.
to work a cyanotype you need paper which is nature and therefore earth, you need ferrous salts, therefore mineral, you need sun to expose, you need water to emulsify, fix and tonify, you need air to oxidise and so the elements favour the process of creation as they favour life.
