Album: Epworth Park

My work is steeped in nostalgia, both in the subject matter and the processes and materials I choose to work with. This book is about the once vibrant Victorian summer cottage park I grew up across the street from in a very tiny town in Ohio. It is as much about the history of that place as it is of my fond childhood memories there. It seemed only appropriate to use a photographic medium that was popular in that era and choose a structure that evokes the popular photo albums of the era.

Handmade abacca paper, wet-plate collodion positive transparencies on mica, book cloth, embossed cover. 3 pages. 4.5 x 4 x .625 inches. 2009. Edition of 10.
