Double Bind
May 1–June 7, 1992
Michelle Normoyle is a photographer who employs the calotype, or paper negative process, in her work. She records images from the technologically complex media with this comparatively simple medium in order to allow: ”The details to fall away, to uncover the dynamics within… my photographs, whether originating from television or print media or film, use the directors tools along with technologically primitive process of the calotype to reveal the unconscious elements operating within the photograph, an antidote to the materialist, technological legacy of the daguerrotype.”
