Aures Repleti Bombacio: de realis fantasy quaerimus II (Ears Filled With Cotton: seeking the real fantasy II) | Cara-Ann Simpson
pigment print on Ilford gold fibre gloss rag
78cm x 78cm
This work is from ‘Furari Flores’ (Stealing Flowers), a vanitas series of one-on-one plant interviews. We fill our senses as we fill our mouths - feeding on refined, synthetic and processed content. I want to stuff my ears with cottonwool to block external stimulation and find my own fantasy in reality.
Canon 6D, EF16-35mm f/4 IS USM at 23mm, ISO 100, 1/15sec at f/4, lighting 3200K, tripod, cable release. 40 images focus-stacked using Photoshop. Resulting image was duplicated, mirrored and joined to create a ‘Z’, pixels transformed to create bleed. Spectrograph (soundwave visual analysis; artist pronouncing Latin title) integrated with image.
