#Bromoil

[immemorymag]

I live with my family & animals in the beautifully wild North Pennines.   My work is rooted in family life & my environment - past & present.  I have been photographing for many years & use a variety of mediums - from large format to digital & processes such as Wet Plate Collodion, bromoil, albumen, cyantotype & silver gelatin.

My work has been exhibited & published worldwide - including Japan, U.S. U.K, Bulgaria, Iran & China & is held in many  private collections from individual collectors  (U.S, U.K, Europe, Japan) to museums & galleries - including the Fox Talbot Museum (UK) & the Centre for Fine Art Photography (U.S) & Charlet Gallery (Paris).

Continuing with the trip down memory lane, one last print from the past. This is a bromoil print of the Fieldstone Lighthouse in Scidmore Park in Three Rivers, Michigan. This is the opposite view of the one I have on-sale in our shop. It is from my Independent Study portfolio. I really loved learning this turn of the century, alternative photographic process! I would love to try my hand at it again but it takes hours to ink up one print. ~ Matteo #filmphotography #filmisalive #filmisnotdead #bwphotography #bwphoto #blackandwhitephotography #blackandwhite #darkroom #darkroomphotography #analogphotography #analogfilm #35mmfilm #35mmphotography #pentax #bromoil #bromoilprint #threeriversmichigan #scidmorepark #alternativeprocess #alternativeprocessphotography (at Three Rivers, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp-fcdxOpB2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Josef Sudek • Portrait of Milena ((Milena Vildová)1942

Sudek is not often thought of as a photographer of people, but he did occasionally make portraits, nearly always of his small circle of close friends. Milena was a dancer and actress living in Prague, who sometimes attended the musical evenings Sudek hosted in his studio to listen to recordings of his favorite classical composers. In these stunning bromoil prints, Sudek has captured Vildová's expressive face just as she turns to look back over her shoulder, with light gently playing across her features. During World War II, Sudek made fewer of his better known landscapes of the city and its surrounding countryside, focusing instead on more personal subjects such as this portraits, quiet interiors, and simple still lives arranged on his windowsill.

Work by Kevin Landers

Work by Brittany Nelson

The seven artists on view at Luhring Augustine for the exhibition Tiptoeing Through the Kitchen, Recent Photography, each bring a unique vision to their practice. The artists included in this show are William Eric Brown, Sophia Chai, Kevin Landers, Brittany Nelson, Shaun Pierson, Gonzalo Reyes Rodriguez, and Sheida Soleimani. Below is more detailed information on the work from the gallery.

From the press release-

“Taking pictures is like tiptoeing into the kitchen late at night and stealing Oreo cookies.”  – Diane Arbus

Materialized in varying ways, kinship and cultural inheritance are frequent touchstones for many of these artists. William Eric Brown’s works — the source images for which were taken in Antarctica in the 1950s by the artist’s father while serving in the US Navy and stationed on an icebreaker — are instilled with new significance through his manipulation and reconceptualization, which address the current reality of climate change and its effects on the arctic. Sophia Chai explores her memory of learning the Korean alphabet as a child through her work. By drawing and painting the shapes and lines of the characters on the walls and floor of her studio, Chai reimagines them in space, thereby abstracting written communication into an embodiment of the sensation of each word being formed inside the mouth.

Sheida Soleimani stages elaborately constructed tableaux to address interwoven narratives of family, politics, and caregiving that trace both personal and public histories. Her carefully fabricated scenes demonstrate her commitment to approaching her practice with measured sensitivity; rather than divorcing her subjects from their own realities, Soleimani creates a contemplative space in which each incorporated object or image conveys an intentional message. Similarly, Shaun Pierson’s work illuminates the complex dynamics in the relationship between photographer and subject. Entwining conflicting sensations of inhibition and desire, Pierson lays bare the often simultaneously transactional and vulnerable apparatus and process of making photographs. Kevin Landers’ photographs, taken on the streets of New York and across the country, are rooted firmly in the here and now. He documents a collection of seemingly unnoticed moments, paying careful attention to unexpected details that, more often than not, most people would simply walk past — ephemera such as an abandoned shopping cart or an intricately woven spider web, expanding our notion of landscape beyond simply the pastoral.

Queer desire and a longing for another space and time are explored through the re-authoring of found or archival images in the works of Gonzalo Reyes Rodriguez and Brittany Nelson. Reyes Rodriguez pairs images from his own history with a series of photographs he purchased from a bookshop in Mexico City — dated between 1987 and 1993, the found snapshots evidence the personal experiences of a young, presumably queer, man known to us as “Technoir.” By combining the two archives, Reyes Rodriguez invites us to dwell in a space of merged memories, neither of which we can fully inhabit, and of the desire to know more. While at first glance Brittany Nelson’s use of archival materials is less overtly personal, her work considers themes of otherness, isolation, and the desire for connection. In one of the series on view, she perceived a sense of romantic devastation in the images taken by Opportunity, the Mars rover, which she amplifies by re-printing them using the 1920s analog bromoil photographic process, thereby infusing them with an added eerie, otherworldly quality.

Though varied in their approaches to photographic practice, what unifies these artists is their investigation of longing, care, and lineage — familial and otherwise — and the way in which they use the medium and the process of making the work as a means to engage with others, with themselves, and to challenge expectations. Generating a constellated conversation that draws upon photography’s history, yet turns toward something altogether new, the artists included in Tiptoeing Through the Kitchen, Recent Photography imbue the seemingly unknown with flashes of recognition.

This exhibition closes 6/8/24.

save you the time testing, ferri won't work as a bromoil bleach. Use the formula I posted.

Good luck!

Trust Gene´s statement. And if you find no source for the chemicals in Norway, let me know.

The whole process is not easy, don´t know if Foma works or not. Fomabrom might work, because it´s not strongly hardened.
