Palinopsia

  • Laura Mateescu

A light painting experiment: Palinopsia can be defined as an afterimage, much like when looking directly into a light source then looking away. Palinopsia is an observation on how fashion photography has changed with time, assimilating elements outside the expected still photographic medium. The project shaped from the curiosity of seeing what can result from blending tested and functional ingredients of fashion photography with less certain ones, such as light painting, where the outcome is never the same.
