In a few weeks maybe even in the next few days I will need to come up with an alternate to the pokeberry juice with which I have begun my initial work in anthotype. This is the last sheet (about 9" x 12" or 22 cm 30 cm) and it is dedicated to Clem and the writing around the collar of his pajama top.
My hope is that most of the sleeping anthotypes will be done in pokeberry or indigenous Ohio plant pigments as photograms. This smaller piece will be one of a few additions to the project which will be from an inkjet transparency. The pajama was scanned and made into a positive transparency. Perhaps this starts a structure for the project, photogram and scanned transparency images paired with each other and contributing different information, this latest one is more about text and handwritten language as a trace.
What follows are the records of the days I put the piece out with the exception of one afternoon not represented by an image.
