This unique diptych is from a series of eight works, all comprised of a negative and positive photographic image. The positive image’s background is negated by hand-colored gold, silver or red markers, to create an abstracted plane from which a pre-teen girl emerges; the negative image, once discerned, reveals the full picture to tell the story that has been suppressed in the positive.
Slater Bradley is represented by Team Gallery, NY, and most notably has had solo shows at the Guggenheim Museum in New York, and at the Berkeley Art Museum in Berkeley, CA.
