Portal 2 and Risen
Palma Allen was looking to create a new body of work within she (I think this is a she...) could explore and add a different dimension. By using infrared film, she says that she opened up a "new visual world" in which she was not experienced which provided her with a challenge. The infrared film actually directed her toward graveyards because of the mysteriousness that surrounded both.

Yosimite Falls framed through trees and 'Twin' and Friend
When Dunniway was younger, his mom would by Civil War books for him. The photographs stuck with him and when he was older he decided to pursue the creation of images similar to those in the war books. He only uses original equipment, which keeps certain qualities from older photography present in his current works. Because he is a history buff, this medium proves to be his favorite:
For Will Dunniway, collodion photography represents the perfect combination of history and art; the perfect interplay between the past, present and future; between old glass, wood, chemicals and the weather; between luck and sweat. "It's what makes me who I am," says Will. "When I found collodion photography, I knew I had found what I wanted to do."
Lina 2 (Liquid Emulsion on Wax) and Stairs (Polaroid Emulsion Lift)
Born in Germany to a mother who pushed her children towards the arts and a radiologist father, Tina was naturally pushed toward photography and to exploring its boundaries. After taking a class at Parsons in NY focused in alternative processes, Maas realized how unique she could make photographs and she was attracted to the rule-breaking and unpredictability that is inherent to alternative processes.
