When I made this image my studio was at the New Museum on the Bowery in NY. I was very interested in the history of that area, including the revivalist architecture. I was wanting to make work which dealt with the act of rearticulating the past when creating identity and history. This image was an early experiment in developing a photographic process along that path.
The image was made by first exposing a sheet of large format film to light entering the iconic 190 Bowery building as the blackouts were removed and the building began its transformation from the somewhat secret home and darkroom of a well known photographer.
The negative was then put through a process which liquefies the layers of red, green and blue which make up the record of white white. This process was repeated, shifting the original record of light, into a record of accumulated time as additive color -- changeable like a recollection. The sheet of film is destroyed in the process, but it is first scanned becoming a 1/1 NFT.
57 photographers from across the NFT photography community come together to raise funds for humanitarian aid for Ukraine. The collection consists of 57 editioned ERC-1155 tokens on a custom smart contract, with 50 editions for each photograph, totaling 2850 NFTs. 100% of primary and secondary proceeds go to the The Giving Block’s Ukraine Emergency Response Fund, an index of aid based charities, non-profits, and NGOs providing humanitarian aid in the Ukraine crisis. Money goes primarily to food, housing, evacuation, and financial support of citizens affected. None of the listed charities are associated with military programs.
