Revenant

A negative bag, half full of the film it has always contained; folded and left with only the chemical residue of the processing deposited on the enclosing paper- a trace of what it once held.

Further Information

 

Revenant was made in response to a brief of 'A one-fold book', from  John McDowell of AMBruno. At its most basic a book consists of a folio- a sheet of paper once folded

The stored negatives are variations of an art-directed group of corporate businessmen, photographed  in the early 1980s

Then supermen; now with their magnitude eroded, they have faded from negative presences to waning ghosts, revenants from that age of financial exuberance.
