Light Radiation

In analogue film, you use radiation to create an image. At the same time the celluloid film on which you capture your image is very sensitive to radiation, which on long term can completely decay your image. This creates an interesting balance between using radiation and protecting it from radiation.

Analogue images have different characteristics than digital images. We don’t have to think about our digital work, because it’s easy to store. The way we treat our analogue film, is completely different and says a lot about how we value the specific image. Digitizing analogue film means that we value the image.

We experimented in altering the development process of film, looking at how it responds to light. In the end we developed images, without involving a camera, but by exposing the film directly to light.
