Phototransfers on glass

  • Revisited after 100 years 

"Revisited after 100 years" (2024)

 

When a century old photographic glass plate of a natural pond with the hand written indication ‘Craenepoel-Bellem’ came into my possession I searched for the exact spot where the unknown photographer had stood to take his picture more than 100 years ago to take some pictures myself.  Thereafter I processed all the photos - the old one and the new ones- into a hanging glass installation, celebrating the beauty of that area.
