Borderland: New Work From Estonia
Just before completing a month's residency at CopperLeg Artist Residency in Vaskjala, Estonia, I had an opening for the photographs that I made and printed there. During my month in Estonia I made trips to eastern and southeastern Estonia, close to the Russian border. I was photographing the land and the people's use of it as well as the scars on the land from the abandoned Soviet era buildings.
At CopperLeg, I made a portfolio of silver gelatin prints in their darkroom. Additionally, I exhibited digital prints from both a digital camera and from an iPhone. Below are some of the images.
