VIEWING DISTANCE
20th Century devices for creating ‘images from nature’ are memorialised in digital editing programs. Their histories overlooked by many, and identified only as an ‘effect’ on a photo editing app.
Functioning as indicators of Photography’s multiple histories, these analogue devices are iconic of their eras and even their resulting prints become displaced in our increasing virtual landscape.
Rapid advances in technology and demand for immediacy ensure that the distance between photo-imaging innovations has become obscured.
EXHIBITION:
Techknotopia

Salerno Gallery
