4. About the Showcased Work(s):
I primarily work with the three-color process, a technique that involves capturing three black-and-white images of the same subject through red, green, and blue filters. When combined, these layers create full-color photographs that highlight the interplay of light, texture, and color. This method connects the history of early color photography with the hands-on unpredictability of analog techniques, embracing imperfections as part of the final image.
