Justin Partain_Photographers 5 & 6

BILL ARMSTRONG

For my fifth photographer I picked Bill Armstrong. Depicted below are images from his series partial appearances. The write up on him stated, "His work sits between the space of reality and dreams, filled with color and nuance. It’s a space of cinematic consideration, leaving the viewer slightly unsettled and at the same time, delighted." I happen to agree with this assessment and love the color interspersed with the ghostly figures in these wonderfully stripped down abstracts.










DANIEL MCCULLOUGH

For my sixth photographer, I chose Daniel Mccullough. The images below are from the series Interruptions. These images are made through deliberate surface manipulation of large format negatives. Through this series he continuously questions the camera’s role in its authenticity, and blurs the fine line between reality and illusion.
