FOUNDarticfacts

The fifty-five photos below were taken in Italy and France in June of 2007 with a Holga camera on 120 film.
The pictures use the particular nature of that less-than-perfect, all-plastic toy camera from China to create images
designed to look less like contemporary photography and more like found artifacts. They are new images made
to feel as if they have been lost in the photo album of a well-traveled, eccentric uncle collecting dust since
between the world wars.

The nine missing spaces are expected. This allowed photos of the same places to be grouped together.

but the same goal of creating work that exists in contrast to the digital photography revolution.
