Analogue X Digital
The Analogue X Digital series explores the intersection of two photographic worlds: the ephemeral instant Polaroid and the precision of digital photography.
Through a meticulous process of deconstruction, I cut away the Polaroid’s frame and peel back its black backing, revealing its delicate emulsion. This fragile layer is lifted in warm water and then in cold water, it is placed onto a digital print of the same subject. The juxtaposition of analogue and digital, both captured in time but brought together through this transformative process, questions the ubiquity and accessibility of photography today.
In an age where digital images flood our lives, this series slows down the photographic process. It highlights the tactile nature of analogue photography while grounding it in the crisp clarity of the digital. The emulsion’s fragility, manipulated by hand, brings an element of chance, imperfection, and texture to an otherwise sharp digital image, creating a hybrid artwork that is neither fully analogue nor fully digital. The square format reinforces a sense of intimacy and nostalgia, while the visual layering speaks to the complexity of our relationship with technology and memory.
By merging two identical images, the work asks us to reconsider what it means to capture a moment - where the tactile and the ephemeral collide, forming something entirely new.
