Artist in focus: Amanda Means - NLMagazine/Amsterdam, The Merchant House, Art, VIDEO - Since the late '80s, the American photographer Amanda Means has been using her own unique process, which entails placing objects—flowers, light bulbs and glasses of water—into a modified 19th-century large format camera.
The light is not captured inside the camera, but instead passes through the object onto light-sensitive photographic paper in the darkroom, causing many more details to become visible—a reverse camera obscura. The results are razor-sharp enlargements of everyday objects, turning them into everyday titans.
