AMY KRICK-FRANK - “This is Not Digital”

These works are camera-less photographs. The black-and-white images are silver emulsion photograms, created in the darkroom with an enlarger, where objects are placed beneath the exposing light. The blue images are cyanotypes, made in natural sunlight with the same objects, extending the process outdoors.    

These photographs are then cut, layered, and reassembled into collages that suggest rhythm and repetition, echoing traditions of fabric design and quilting.   

My process is intuitive, unfolding in a stream of consciousness. Nature is both my subject and my collaborator—sea oats, leaves, and seasonal cycles appear as recurring motifs echoing the daily patterns of my life and meditative walks or bike rides. Time moves in many registers: Repetition and variation mirror the patterns of life: growth, decay, renewal.

“I create one-of-a-kind artworks depicting fragments of time.” Amy Krick-Frank
