Valet Parking Tom Oldfield
Archival Inkjet Print 16" x 20" $300 My photography is an escape from everyday reality. I am fascinated by the process of how things became what they are and where they are going, whether the subject is a grand landscape or some decaying technology from the past. All of my work is in black and white. To me a black and white image is more elegant and encourages people to participate by bringing their imagination into play. I mostly use traditional large-format film and traditional darkroom techniques. Although large-format film is my passion, I use other processes when that avenue is more appropriate for my image. Lake Valley, New Mexico, is a well-preserved ghost town. The stories told by the detritus of time gone by would be fascinating, but we have to make up our own.
