Winter

The project is called “Winter”, my favorite season of the year. I stroll in my neighborhood during the Winter and photograph the white fluffs on trees and houses. It is a beautiful sight to look at. The submitted images are Silver Gelatin prints not toned.

Past work by Zia Ayub.

 

“Making photograms allows me to step aside from lens and film, so I can spend hours of experimenting with different techniques of printing which I enjoy very much. In a way its therapeutic, allows one to escape to another world. I always preferred printing rather photographing as the years passed by.
Photogram is a photographic image that is made without a camera by placing objects directly onto the surface of a light-sensitive material then exposing it to light. The result shows variation in tones that depends upon the transparency of the objects used. I manipulate the print with various technique applications to give the print the color tones of Pictorialism era. Areas of light-sensitive material received no light appear warm whites, and the exposed areas are warm black-yellowish tones in the final print.”  Zia Ayub
