About the Item

12 unique chromoskedasic monoprints in white frames 34.25 x 38 inches overall with 1-inch spacing 10.75 x 8.75 inches each These contemporary, abstract-style chromoskedasic monoprints were created by experimental photographer Birgit Blyth. Without the use of a camera, the artist produced each chromoskedasic image by applying the photographic chemicals to black and white photo paper and exposing it to light. The earthy mahogany, clay, olive and ivory tones, as well as the gritty textures, are determined by the different chemicals used and the amount of time they are exposed to light. Here, a spiral is rendered in bold, rhythmic lines that vary in weight from one image to another. Each photograph is complimented by a lightweight white frame with a hook -on the back for instant, professional-quality hanging. About the artist and work: Birgit Blyth is one of our most innovative and prolific photographers who works in a darkroom yet uses no camera! Blyth has been experimenting with a technique known as Chromoskedasic painting since the early ‘90s and variations on this concept have been shown at the gallery for the last 20 years. The unusual process involves the use of silver particles in black and white photographic paper to scatter light at different wavelengths when exposed. A chemist of sorts, Blyth demonstrates a thorough knowledge of how the various photographic chemicals will react when applied to paper and exposed. Each work is unique with palettes that resonate brilliant tonalities of brown, green, black, and purple. Using this technique, Blyth creates abstract crosshatching grids and most recently has developed a more gestural series of 20 x 16 inch chromoskedasic paintings that explores the ethereal qualities made possible by the unconventional material. Birgit Blyth succeeds at keeping her work fresh and cutting-edge using analog methods that are being quickly replaced elsewhere with digital technology.
