Palladium print formed by the brushstrokes in a wave pattern and printed using negatives of seaweed.
  • Waves
  • Palladium on Japanese gampi.
  • 2018
  • 21.5 X 19 inches

Using negatives from seaweed, which I collected on Maine’s rocky coast, I hand brushed the palladium emulsion in the wave shape. I printed the negatives on translucent gampi paper from Japan, a paper made from a plant growing wild. The perpetual waves of the sea are wild nature in motion.
