Estabrook
| Working with 19th century printing processes, Dan Estabrook creates seemingly anonymous photographs which both obscure meaning and expose truth. His images of highly personal objects hide and reveal his inner secrets and stories, uncovering universal truths and questions. Much of his inspiration comes from old medical texts which contain tipped-in prints of bodies slowly fading into acidic paper. In Estabrook’s art, a face in profile riddled with blemishes transforms an angelic silhouette into one of circumspection; the graceful lines of a woman’s body fades into the paper becoming both a distant memory and evidence of loss. These are introspective images which challenge the viewers perception of truth. |
