Clair Rossiter

 
Photographs printed onto acetate.
 



I am intrigued by these pieces by Clair Rossiter. She has printed photographs onto acetate - and even the blurred images work really well, possibly better when creating a sense of illusion.

The pieces almost seem to be made up of lots of different images, as if the photographs are created by leveling images. This is a technique I have been using with tracing paper, but if the acetate printing goes well then I can use images on acetate and layer them to create a bizarre picture - made up of different elements of each photography piece.

I also like the tones of the photography - it gives me an idea of getting different coloured acetate or even painting over/drawing on the acetate once it has been printed on...It would be interesting to write on the acetate, also there is the idea of projection still.

If I could create really interesting design/words on acetate/plastic then it would make a really interesting projection - either onto the floor, wall or ceiling...ceiling is interesting? It would direction the audiences' gaze around my work/different directions/cause disruption/distraction etc. I will work on the designs/sketches I can create on sheets of material - especially if I still cannot get any of my work printed off...
