When scrolling through the list of artists for this week my eyes could not stop going back the work of Amy Friend.  The images caught my attention at first because of the way she has the spots of light I thought it might have been another experiment of lights and motion, but learned quickly that the images were actually vintage photographs that had been altered in a way that would allow for the light to shine through the photographs. To do this she made numerous pinholes in a certain way that  breathed  new life into some old timeless photos.  The light that is let in not only enhances the original photo buy the holes themselves create a new images all on their own. I think this is best seen in her piece “Afterglow” where that addition of light seeping into the photo makes this piece feel magical.

Australian Week: Michael Corridore

The raw Polaroid images that Michael Corridore captures in his work give a sense of nostalgia to when life was more simplistic and carefree. Corridore, an Australian photographer, is best known for his work “Angry Black Snake” but in this article he focuses the conversation on his love and appreciation for the classic Polaroid’s.  It was defiantly his pictures that sparked my interest in his work as well as the fact that he is a very accomplished artist in the world photography, yet he still has a love for the cameras for the past.  Corridore says “The colors are of a past time and so are the classic white borders” and I could not agree with him more!  The photos he showcases in this article were taken along his various journeys in life, with the way he captured these memories it takes me back to my own childhood as my family traveled across the states letting our own Polaroid document our travels and memories.
