SOLARIZED

My vision for this collection was to create the solarisation aesthetic using digital techniques. The ethereal effect produced creates halo-like outlines around the edges of the flowers giving them a delicate illustrative apperance.

This collection was inspired by Man Ray, a visual artist and pioneering photographer who used solarization to give an otherworldly quality to his photographs. Originally this involved exposing a photographic print to light during the development process to create an unpredictable reversal of tones in some areas, especially around the edges of a subject.
