"7 Japanese Wives"

mixed media collage using a 25 year old waterlogged time-zero polaroid* and a variety of found ephemera

*I have a friend who owns a salvage yard in Philadelphia. He finds the most amazing things in the cars he gets in. A while back, he found many packs of 1980 Time-Zero polaroid film, still sealed in the boxes. However, the film, along with being long-expired, had been soaking in water for an undetermined period of time. He nevertheless dried it out and sent it to me to try out! Well, sadly, all of the batteries were coroded. However, I savalged some of the film for use in collage!!!!! All the distressing you see here is from this lovely film's 25-year-old journey through "life"
