Alchemy 12 (Good Graces)

This “Alchemy Series” is a collaboration between Bay Area Photographer Michael Endicott and Mixed Materials Artist, Inna Zatulovsky, in which we experiment with our perception of visual media by how light reflects off the combined photography, wool roving and found natural materials.

Your perception of the pieces will change with the distance at which you stand to view it. We call it ‘Mixed Media Fusion” because the composition and mix of materials is determined by the reflective properties of the materials,” says Michael.

ALCHEMY 12 (Good Graces)’s substrate is a photograph of the scaffolding covers located over a building being painted in San Francisco, Ca. The original underlying piece was entitled a "Walk in the Woods at Dawn." Inna has completely transformed the piece into a new story, and I am fascinated by the way she has integrated painted plants to the underlying composition of my shot. And true confessions, I am finding myself falling in love with this mysterious woman hanging right now in my studio across the room from me. She will move to Gallery House in April if she hasn't been snapped up by somebody before then.
