Works and experimental works in progress relating to the Bauhaus, Dessau & Berlin, and the Isokon, London.
‘Bauhaus, Dessau’
These medium format negatives are presented here as objects in their own right. The material of film is a sculptural object, as well as a basis for printing photographs. The resulting photographs will be posted here at a later date.
