Reflection in Him
DESCRIPTION
Archival ink on museum-quality cotton rag paper | 2022
Hand In, the new series of archival prints from Katie Burdon, is at once cohesive and diverse. It is also absolutely inimitable and unique. Across the entire series, the focus is on Burdon’s time spent in the darkroom, and the patience needed for its spontaneous nature and ephemerality. Then, the series is divided into two halves: one half in black and white, and one half in color. The images shot on black and white film focus on subtle surrealism in compositions — mirrors in water, for example, and the sun’s reflection. For the second half of the series, Burdon shot those same images, on the same piece of land, but this time in color. Inspired by the mirroring she saw in nature, she was committed to replicating that effect in the darkroom, placing prints on top of one another and playfully creating double exposures that hearken back to the initial water reflections she saw in this location.The result is a series of visual poems that speak to both the ineffable beauty of nature and determination of the creative spirit.
