Layers of Remains

Gum printing, a historical photographic technique, uses potassium dichromate mixed with watercolor pigments to create unique, unrepeatable images. The process involves coating paper with a photosensitive emulsion, exposing it to UV light with a negative, and washing to develop the image. The technique's high variability in color, paper humidity, exposure time, and washing duration makes each print distinct. Revisiting this time-intensive method in the digital age transforms it into a reconstruction of memory, where overlapping layers of color and pigment create a visual space intertwining past, present, and future.
