My photographs are contact prints on silver-gelatin paper from images made on cracked mobile phones. I'm drawing a line between how we look at photos today to an earlier form of image capture that was experienced in the analogue, rather than digital realm. I’m interested in the various historical tensions inherent in this picture making; by contact printing phone images on silver gelatin paper, I’m considering not only what is lost and gained by moving from the digital to the analogue but also reconsidering the familiar act of looking at images on a device we all carry around with us.
