Visual Technicians: Est 2003 Handmade: I hand-cut every layer of film thats physically possible to do by hand. Using rubylith I cut each layer with an exacto knife. I hand pull each print and hang it to dry on a clothes peg. There's no automated printing or drying, which means each print takes more time to create. Consider the process when looking at my art and I hope you can enjoy the image more knowing the time and energy put into each one.
