Photograph - Sx-70 Manipulation
Description
SX-70 Manipulations
Before Polaroid went belly-up, I was working on a series of urban images utilizing the SX-70 manipulation process. In a nut-shell, the dyes in an SX-70 print take several hours to set, longer if you keep it cold. If you push, "draw" directly on the surface of the print with any kind of tool, you can move the dyes around and dramatically change the look, the feel of the image. I am attracted to this technique because, photography is often so precise, so factual, it was nice to have a direct manner to introduce my hand into the image making process.
