Artists Cameron Brideoake & Vera Ada :: Exhibition Opening :: Tues 17th January, 6pm - 8pm
Our first exhibition for 2012 looks amazing. Here's some more info about Vera Ada:
VĂ©ra Ada is a 22 year old language student interested in photography and linguistics. Whilst the latter is the main focus of her career, she considers picture-making as her creative self. As an experimental photographer, she works with as many formats as possible, including digital, 35mm and 60mm film cameras, as well as instant. She processes her work both on computer and in the dark-room, and is fascinated by multiple and long exposures, light and chemical leaks, expired film, and cross-processing.
She focuses mainly on people in her images, working around the model with minimal direction. In this exhibition she's showcasing a variety of hand printed dark-room portraits, as well as colour film multiple exposures, which have proven to be an ongoing obsession due to the inability to have complete control over the final photo.
