This project is the interplay between two contrasting mediums: watercolor paints (a fluid substrate) and Polaroid pictures (a fixed projection).
My fascination lies in merging these two mediums. I use watercolors to infuse new life into Polaroid photos. I transform the mundane into the magical, adding whimsical drips, splashes, and running lines of watercolor paint to scenes frozen in time - serendipity that AI could never replicate.
The transparency of watercolors on Polaroid I-type film blends seamlessly yet takes hours to dry without the help of a blow dryer, and sometimes a dehydrator set at 118 degrees Fahrenheit. I aim to create a visual harmony that dances between the separate mediums of painting and instant film photography.
