Description

This portrait, made using a flatbed scanner as the camera, engages in a dialogue between contemporary technology and the early days of photography. The two-minute exposure time and shallow depth of field harken back to the limitations of the first photographic processes. Unlike the small-scale of historic images, Bross prints her image larger than life-size, enhancing the tension between the photograph’s intimacy and its simultaneous sense of distance.
