Walter Benjamin described the early photographic process as a natural process, one in which 'the sitter would grow into'.

With the digital age, the photograph seems to have lost its materiality amongst other. No longer do images reveal a constant, but rather appear as optical illusions with the aid of high frequencies on screens. But don't these digital mediums leave any marks at all? Or are they by any means obsolete when compared to analogue approaches? 

Influenced by Heidegger's meta-philosophical idea of the tool-being in relation to the photograph as object, in this project I have experimented with traditional and alternatived printing methods and digital screens, with the intention to allow the digital image to physically manifest itself.
