About the Item

Series: Afterlife-New Jersey Shore Print Type: Selenium, Sepia, & Iron Toned Gelatin Silver Printed on Bergger Prestige Fiber Based Paper Matted & Mounted 8ply Museum Board Available Sizes: 22" x 28" Edition of 3 + 1 AP 32" x 40" Edition of 10 + 2 AP 42" x 54" Edition of 3 + 1 AP Wildwood, New Jersey I've been documenting these small New Jersey coastal/amusement towns for the past 15 years now - "Afterlife 1" and "Afterlife 2" I started the "Afterlife 3" series in late winter/early spring-2020 and worked on this series all through the virus when everything was shut down and when these towns/amusement piers started to try an open again this summer. I completed the series a few weeks ago- (just about one year after I started it). These amusement towns/shore communities in New Jersey seemed like the last free places on earth. They took on an eerie (almost romantic) stance in the face of all the turmoil surrounding them. I found this time reminiscent of when I was younger and would hang out on the boardwalk all night. There was this beautiful mixture of danger, freedom, unpredictability, that gave way to an odd type of romance. There was always an undercurrent of sadness, but it was gorgeous type of sadness.... Like with most of my series these days, this series was all shot using a 5"x7" view camera, Black and white film developed in pyro, and I handmake the final prints as split toned(Iron, Selenium, Bleached/Selenium) & tinted gelatin silver. I still do all the work myself. This photograph will be printed once payment has been received and will ship directly from the printer the artist works with. Your certificate of authenticity will be shipped separately from your print and in most cases will ship directly from the gallery. Trimper Gallery is more than happy to provide clients with the next available edition number however, the Trimper Gallery can only guarantee the specific edition number the client will receive once payment has been received.
