Experiments in Photography…and Other Things

Today I shot two rolls of film trying to get the photographs I want for my second assemblage. I’ve never done long exposures though, and it was a lot of work to try to get the lighting right. I took many shots with the shutter open, trying to capture movement, as well as some single shots that I want to overlap onto one another in the darkroom. I still have no idea whether or not any of the photographs from the first roll will come out, but I really wanted to try anyway. I guess we’ll see what happens when I go to process the film tomorrow, I hope I have enough useable shots to make my vision for the box come to life.

 

In other news, I had to order bottles online so that they would all be the same size and fit into the box I am using and they came in the mail today! Yay! It felt like I was opening a science kit or something.

I started to fill them with things like my baby teeth (because I’m weird like that) and my dad’s grey hair.

 

 

I was also able to find some cool objects to use at the flea market including an old pair of nail scissors and an antique curling iron. (see photo at top)

  1. Oh boy! I am excited to see all the objects that will go into your next box and what room it will represent. Although I have a feeling that it will represent the bathroom. I think that it is really cool that you have kept your baby teeth! I’m curious to find out what you were photographing. Keep up on the good work

  2. Hi Isabella,
    Nice bottles you weirdo!
    Your work is reminding me of Victorian hair keepsakes. For me there is more connection to both the beauty and ugliness of the living via a keepsake of an actual body part. Hair strikes me as the most accurate reference to the living. An actual piece of a person continues to exist with the passing moments rather than exist as a representation and/or a reference to a past moment. I have an ex-boyfriends wisdom teeth in a bottle. Some opossum teeth and a cat jaw in other bottles. I love the gritty early science aesthetic. That pin through a butterfly look.
    I enjoyed reading about your anticipation for your photos to be useable. That is some patience with process! I love your work and I am looking forward to the next piece.

  3. I think you presented this box the one day that I missed class this quarter. I’m getting a creepy vibe from it – from the vials of teeth, hair, and at first I thought the old curling iron was some scary antique medical tool. I look forward to seeing how the photos turned out and this box next week!
