The book presents twenty-one different portfolios, all made by using his unique process of photographing a collage of found or appropriated images extremely out of focus or distorted by handheld time exposures. The variety of subjects and results he achieves with this process is so broad it has been said that he has developed a medium of his own invention that lies at the intersection of photography, painting and collage.With mysterious and poetic images that reflect on history, philosophy, identity and spirituality, Armstrong conjures a unique alternate reality that might exist in dreams, in memory, or, perhaps, in a parallel universe. At the same time, the subject of the work is color. By taking away focus and the usual expectations of photography, Armstrong is able to investigate the qualities and effects of pure color in a profound way, freed from the limits of representation. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/9c6c3720-dda7-11f0-b8f9-6bf3b1665653-rimg-w558-h740-dc92c0f2-gmir.jpg Bill Armstrong is an internationally acclaimed fine art photographer based in New York.
