In this project, digital photography is not considered as a replacement, an advancement or a rival but as an entirely different apparatus and approach to producing photographic imagery compared to and associated with analogue photography.
Instant film photography once was used to represent authenticity and existence, but it is not any more in the digital generation with all the advancement in technology. In this series of instant film work, the original image is a screenshot instead of a photographical capture of any real object. By creating a series of maze-like digital photographic images on instant films without the use of a digital camera, this project investigates an alternative way of image capturing that interplays between analogue photography and digital photography.
The ramification of this experiment, applying digital photography methods combined with classical photography material, constructed an illusion of a three dimensional space, a multiple layers of empty frame on instant films, that challenges the perception of the viewers, questions the traditional understanding of photographic image making and experiments with a not-yet-be-seen aspect of photography as a form of artistic practice itself.
