Allan Barnes "People of the 21st Century" (10/22)



For this exhibition, the artist will show recent portraits done in Wet Plate Collodion. Using chemicals such as silver nitrate and ether this process includes coating, sensitizing and developing a sheet of metal in a period of fifteen minutes. Each image is hauntingly beautiful and expresses a desire to transcend time and technology.
“I am inspired by the character of Billy Pilgrim in Kurt Vonnegut's Novel Slaugtherhouse-Five who begins the story with the words: ‘I have become unstuck in time’.”
