DRAWING WITH LIGHT: THE PENCIL OF NATURE. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Sep 2009, Pages: 244
DRAWING WITH LIGHT: THE PENCIL OF NATURE This studio based research is concerned with the concept of Drawing with Light through the development and use of carbon based photographic processes. The inspiration for this research is taken from William Henry Fox Talbot’s work, in particular, his first photographic publication, the Pencil of Nature. The concept of a pencil of light is investigated to show how light might be traced or dragged across a surface to form an image of itself. A hypothesis is developed for Drawing with Light that investigates the notion of light as a medium from which drawings can be traced, edited and erased by the inherent visual characteristics of visible and invisible light. During her research, she identifies clear potential benefits for the revival of this process in the context of contemporary fine art and architectural glass.
