Claire William’s latest exhibition Dedications continues with experimental film development/manipulation techniques resulting in unique works, visually similar to either solarization or the Sabatier effect.

“The photographs are at an intersection of surrealism and realism. They linger between telling the truth, and distorting the truth. The chemical effect embodies an image one might conjure in a dream or memory, and they appear as if the image could be wiped away at any second. Eventually, our memories of people will appear similarly to these photographs, blemished, hazy around the edges, obscured by foggy information. I have taken portraits of people close to me not to reveal a truth about them, but instead to describe a feeling of recollection and nostalgia.”

The exhibition opens at 6pm, Thursday 30th November at the Huw Davies Gallery, Manuka Arts Centre and runs to 10th December.

The paper selected by Claire for these prints was Epson Cold Press Natural.
