Framed 8 x 10” tintype

2023

Shot at Silver Peak Mine at Yerranderie, 46 kilometres by crow, 171 kilometres by car, Sable Cloud Silver limns three schismatic relationships; the relationship between landscapes and extractive industries, the relationship between extractive industries and photography and the relationship between photography and landscapes

This camera original collodion wet plate photograph coalesces fingerprints, sweat and silver and Yerranderie’s sun and silvered water, dust and dirt
