Airportals
Created by purposefully passing film through security x-ray checks then exposing on top of the damaged film images inside the airport, AIRPORTALS brings together reportage photographs and abstracted mark making to capture ghostly echoes of these tightly controlled boarder crossings. The waves of exposure that run through the negatives present a forbidden portrait of these liminal zones whilst exploring the changing symbolism of airports from romantic non spaces to friction filled sites of protest, tension and invasion.
