State of Change:
Emilio Cresciani

Drawing together works using both darkroom and digital techniques, State of Change captures the surprisingly complex and beguiling transformation of ice into water. Photograms document frozen fragments refracting and reflecting light, producing patterns suggestive of shifting landscapes. Close-up captures trace the disintegration of massive blocks into drips and spots. The resulting works reference the profound impacts of human-induced climate change on polar regions, and the wider ways in which people have marked the Earth.

Cresciani produced State of Change as PhotoAccess’ 2020 Dark Matter artist-in-residence. This program supports the production of experimental work incorporating darkroom or alternative processes.
