Elemental #170: A Reality Distortion - due east from Bahia Honda towards Africa

Michael Rawling’s Elemental Series uses Film, and Found Materials at the photographs’ location to create a new type of Landscape artwork.

.

Tiny amounts of water, organic and mineral samples are collected at the site of the photograph, from the very landscape depicted within the picture - and chemically bonded with the film over 6-12 months....the resulting image created is more throughly representative of the visceral landscapes we really experience.
