Mystery roll surprise
Posted 21 April, 2008 in ArtmakingI found an exposed roll of film in my freezer yesterday mixed in with my stash of unexposed 120 slide film. I’m 99% sure it’s stuff I shot for the Spacetime series I’ve been working on for a few years (that’s the only thing I shoot chromes for), but I have no idea when or where I shot it.
Looks like I’m going to get a little dose of what street photographer Garry Winogrand, who would let his film sit for a few years after he shot it so he’d have no memory of having made the pictures when he finally saw them, was after. I’ve always thought that was a good idea that must be a good and different experience, but I’ve never been patient enough to try.
It’s a small-scale surprise, to be sure, but I’m excited to see what’s there!
