DOUBLE EXPOSURE 1994

In 1994, one day in the darkroom, I accidentally sandwiched two negatives: one of a subway station and the other of the sky. I then printed them on the same photo paper. The result looked amazing to me and encouraged me to do more. After I finished the series of pictures of subway stations combined with sky and water, I ran around the city and shot various monuments, then combined them with natural objects, such as clouds and water, in the darkroom. Since computer-generated art was not yet popular at that time, I had to manually complete the entire process to create seamlessly blended images.

PINHOLE CAMERA 1994

This was my first experiment with a pinhole camera. The camera was created from my 35 mm SLR camera and its lens cap with a tiny hole drilled in it. I shot these images at the corner of 42nd Street and 5th avenue on a bright sunny afternoon. In the images, you can find the presence of skyscrapers.
