Day 4: Photography Mobile
I decided to do something with my stacks of darkroom remnants - those prints that for whatever reason were slightly flawed and unusable. So I cut up and folded the photos into cubes, strung them on fishing wire, and behold- a mobile. Usually photo handling is so finicky lest you get a speck of dust or a smudge somewhere, so this was very satisfying - I rubbed my grubby little fingers all over this project. And maybe this little mobile will age with yellowed fingerprints, but isn’t that more interesting than having a pristine picture sitting inside a vacuum-sealed frame?
