Day Three – ‘Roid Week 2010

Here is a self portrait I must have taken, circa 2000.

Recently, searching through stacks of old college artwork, I found these books I made for a project in lithography. I did a series of stone litho prints of self portraits based on polaroids I had taken.

Each one of these pieces was then attached to a thick black paper, like old photo albums had, and then handmade into a book. You can see the top center piece is not exactly the same, but must have been based on a picture from the same pack of film.

I thought I had shared these on my blog here when I recently discovered them, but looking back I don’t see them. Here is another print based on Polaroid, probably 2001?  This is an intaglio piece, (etching onto a metal plate and then printed onto paper).
