Fragments is a series of photographic collages created by layering film negative remnants collected from the Fashion Institute of Technology’s scanning lab.
Utilizing the fundamentals of photography, these multifaceted pieces explore the bridge between analogue and modern technologies. Driven by the tactile nature of analogue materials, the film fragments are intently arranged atop a digital scanning bed creating dynamic shapes. The light from the scanner revives the acetate fragments bringing them new dimension through shadow and color. The experimental scanning process transforms film scraps into unified geometric forms that highlight the tangibility of photographic materials, through modern technology.
