I became aware of Liquid Light at art school when I specialized in photography. I fell in love with the medium after watching a tutor print an image onto an egg. I would spend hours and days in my tiny cupboard darkroom in London practicing painting the emulsion onto different papers and printing my photographs. I like the painterly appearance of images caused by the application with a brush, and I feel the raw aesthetic suits the rugged NZ landscape. I enjoy the element of surprise when using the technique in the darkroom.
