Inspired by Manray's "Rayogram", I enjoy making photograms in my darkroom. Photograms are cameraless images that are created by placing opaque objects on top of paper in the darkroom and exposing it to white light. This photogram of springs was then solarized and intentionally not run through the chemicals correctly. Darkroom chemicals were dripped on it, it was exposed to white light, and finally, through experimentation and sheer accident, I came out with this.
