Photography was proberbly the most experimental media I worked with during the 'Fauna' project. I have already taken many photos in the past (in hindsight, many would have worked at least as a point of reference) but I had taken a different step with my first attempt in this workshop. I was given the opportunity to develop negatives.
Rather than work on actual photographs, I produced drawings on a specialised sheet of paper, which was then scanned onto an acetate-like sheet, working in place of a filmstrip.

From the sheet, a few were selected to attempt making negative images, as produced using Jessops resin-coated paper. At least four of the drawn images were actually used and many more attempts were made, from which only two were ever finished.
Looking back on them, they appear more interesting than I initially presumed them to be.
