Caminante No Hay Camino (30 x 22 inch Hand-Printed Cyanotype Photograph)
(30 x 22 inch Hand-Printed Cyanotype Photograph on Paper)
UNFRAMED.
A smaller edition of this particular hand-printed cyanotype photograph sold to Timothée Chalamet at The Other Art Fair in Los Angeles.
At 30 x 22 inches, this is almost the largest size of all my foggy forest hand-printed photographs using the cyanotype process from the 1800s.
All of my hand-printed cyanotype photographs are “contact photos”, which means that the large negative is exactly the same size as the paper that the photo is printed on because the negative is laid directly on top of the paper while it is being exposed. It is cumbersome working with a breakable 30-inch sheet of glass at this scale.
These iconic Monterey Pines are in the woods near my house in northern California where I walk. Anyone from Oakland will recognize them. They are a great comfort to me. The changing light and foggy weather transform them so that every hour and every day is like seeing a new painting.
The paper is a heavy 100% cotton hot press watercolor paper. Slight variations of shades of blue exist from edition to edition as each print was hand-painted with photo chemicals in the dark and printed in natural sunlight with variations in the weather and intensity of light causing some prints to be darker than others.
