Description  🛈

Three series of pinhole photographs taken in Chicago at night, inspired by the 1871 Chicago Great Fire.

Each of the series was taken on a smaller and smaller film format, and printed on a larger and larger format. Details of the images are progressively consumed by the film grain and the blurriness of the images.

With casual references to American Minimalism.

Extent  🛈
6 pinhole photographs on 35mm film; 12 pinhole photographs on 16mm film; 3 photographs on 8mm film; silver halide prints.
