Sigh. <\/em>Vintage photos covered in fireflies! Well, not really, but that’s what I like to imagine. Canadian photographer\u00a0Amy Friend<\/a> has just created a whole bunch of new work, as a continuation of her magical Dare alla Lucce<\/em> series<\/a>. I’ve written about this series before, but in case you haven’t seen that, and you’re wondering what these stunning pieces are all about, here is Amy’s description:<\/p>\n

“Through hand-manipulated interventions I altered and subsequently re-photographed the images \u201cre-making\u201d photographs that oscillate between what is present and what is absent. I aim to comment on the fragile quality of the photographic object but also to the equal fragility of our lives, our history. All are lost so easily. By playing with the tools of photography, I \u201cre-use\u201d light by allowing it to shine through the holes in the images. In a somewhat playful and yet literal manner, I return the subject of the photographs back to the light, while simultaneously bringing them forward. The images are permanently altered; they are lost and reborn, hence the title, Dare alla Luce, an Italian term meaning, \u201cto bring to the light\u201d, in reference to birth.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Brilliant, and oh so dreamy! I am lucky enough to have one of her pieces from a few years ago, but all of these new images are currently available at Citizen Atelier<\/a>. {Go now!}<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
