In early 2023 I released a longer series (eighteen photographs) titled ‘Tenebrosity’ that was showcased in two parts on Instagram. However due to Meta’s, apparently extreme, censorship many photographs were removed. Usually an appeal is allowed, however in several instances they were forcibly removed by Meta. Therefore I decided to just delete the entire series from the platform in an effort to not have my account suspended. I do believe they should be seen though, as the series itself, overall, has unique characteristics and properties.
ten·e·bros·i·ty / tenəˈbräsədē/ the quality of being dark or shadowy.
The goal with this series was to create imagery inspired by light and shadow. Additionally, each part is unique in the medium; Part A was made entirely with standard, 120 film and Part B was made entirely with Fuji Pack Film (instant film) alongside alternative techniques. This produces a unique spirit for each Part, with Part B being the “shadow side” of Part A. The entire series was made in one small 5ft x 5ft area of my home with one window for lighting. I wanted to restrict myself as much as possible in the creation of the series, forcing myself to get close and intimate with the subject and premise.
The following nine photographs make up Part A of the series:
