A silver gelatin luminogram, last exhibited at PhotoLondon with @MMXgallery
Making a luminogram based upon a response to a subject without physically copying it is similar in concept to writing music about love.
The luminogram process is just a process - as adaptable as sculpture and as limitless as painting. Taking it to new places is a thrill
If you reject copying reality and in its place you mirror a representation of your response to reality then you are truely free
If you try to represent a response to a subject rather than a visual copy of a subject then it's as much about you as the subject.
'Yellow'
Nicolas de Stael, Graham Sutherland and Andrew Wyeth
So different, and yet all sharing the same basic core of individual intention.
The Howard Hodgkin exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery is wonderful. I like the way he ignored all the critics and just carried on.
The experience of, and your response to a colour should be no different to the experience of a place or physical thing.
