Darkroom prints by Sandy Barnard
This suite of nine silver halide chromogenic darkroom prints was produced from a collection of badly scratched and abraded, 10 x 8 inch, black and white negatives that Hazewinkel purchased in a flea-market in Athens.
Representing damaged figurative sculpture from the Archaic and Hellenistic periods, these professionally produced, museologically motivated negatives, are themselves artefacts. Hazewinkel describes them as 'damaged cultural artefacts of modernity that cradle images of damaged cultural artefacts of antiquity'.
This body of work considers entanglements between the materially manifest histories of care and neglect recorded in the negatives, their subjects, and ourselves.
