Brian Leatart knows his way around a camera and a kitchen, but did you know he's also proficient with a 4x5 and the great outdoors? Brian stretches himself and his photographic vision through his personal work.
In this series he explores the theme of disintegration through vision and memory in haunting black and white double exposure prints. Shot mostly on type 55 polaroid negative film, all double exposures were done in camera and printed in the darkroom on silver gelatin paper. The original prints are 20x24.
Pretty.Damn.Cool.
