The dark areas are deposits of heat and sweat that adhered to the emulsion. No magnification was used to make the original. Schneider then photographed the resulting photogram and and printed it in a larger size. Cool, eh?<br /><br />Schneider started making hand-print photos in 1993 - many of which can be seen in <a href="http://www.aperture.org/handbook.html/" rel="nofollow"><br /><i>HandBook</i></a>, a limited-edition artist's book, published by the Aperture Foundation in 2010.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1396358236873322561.post-3218477290017633512011-04-26T15:12:33.161-07:002011-04-26T15:12:33.161-07:00Wow, I can see why.
