Earth Day 2009

Earthrise by Jo Bradford

Happy Earth Day!!

This is one of my recent luminograms (a.k.a. light paintings) which I make in my darkroom by filtering coloured lights, and then painting with the remaining colours directly onto light sensitive photographic paper.

The resulting visual art is located somewhere between photography and painting as it borrows heavily from both practices but results in something altogether different.

This work is part of an ongoing series of work made over the past five years called Constructing Space, which explores the way we receive information about space images and space science.
