Light shines through the almost translucent fabric, contrasted by the gray shadows made by the folds of the dress.

Also available in the following sizes (unframed and made to order): 20 x 24 inches - $1400 unframed 40 x 50 inches - $4000 unframed and unmounted About the work: Chad Kleitsch uses scanograph technology to capture his intimate subjects, be it a flower, a sheer nightgown, a child’s bib; is placed on the scanner and backlit with a high intensity light that penetrates through the object as though it were a sheet of film or slide, reproducing an effect like that of a stained-glass window. This process is also explored via Works on Paper, including a handwritten letter by Emily Dickinson, a hand addressed envelope by Mary Cole (Thomas Cole's daughter), and choreography notes by dancer Lucinda Childs. Contrary to mere reproductions, the scanned objects are in fact transformed by light and become something else entirely. Frozen in time, Kleitsch invites us to really stop and smell the roses.
