(Michael Jackson, 8 May 2022, pers. Email) Here is a selection of my studies for making sculptures with light. I think that all arts are in some way interchangeable and have some kind of similar core - and I feel that silver gelatin paper has incredible properties that most other artistic mediums don’t - mainly that the paper actually physically changes at a chemical level as you hit it with light, which in my mind is so similar to carving in stone or pottery where the medium is physically changed rather than the medium being added to a base of canvas or paper like painting or drawing.
 
These small studies are a record of me trying to approach the modification and control of silver gelatin paper with the mindset of a potter - I am trying to find the similarities between the two mediums rather than the differences.
