PEELED

a peeled time zero polaroid film by Canadian artist chad coombs.

For my Peeled series, I have used a process of my own using Time Zero Polaroid film. After taking a portrait onto a Polaroid film and etching into the film any design or line work, I begin by removing all the edging of the original. Once this is complete, I begin to peel apart the front and back from each other as the Polaroid is halfway through its development process. The addition of then air drying, which is typically sealed, aids in the textural paint-like result. The harnessing of imperfection and chaos within a predetermined process allows me to reveal my inner painter's approach to my photography.
