Some shifting chemical colour clouds to break up the silvery grey of light sensitive materials. Expired, accidentally slightly souped film shot in Pembrokeshire & Brecons. I am currently in NY for a month, trying to fix the fragments of my life. #holga #holgatim #expiredfilm #fujifilm #filmsoup

Accidental double exposures, film burns and other chemical aberrations on expired film shot in multiple continents and subjected to a lot of abuse. Chemical collapses for a burning world. These kind of in-camera accidents are what keep me hooked on film. 8mm / various cameras/ developed by me

"My work is definitely not about nostalgia. It’s about things like the fallibility of memory and how reality is constructed. That’s why I like that mix between the haunting and the materials. It’s also the decaying medium." The Light-Sensitive Materials of Sapphire Goss buff.ly/0gOsevm

A junk shop roll of found photos so old the text from the backing paper has etched in over the years. Kodacolor II was made from 1973 to the early 80s and the clothes/space-age garden furniture seem to say 70s. Transmissions from a lost world.

Highlands on 16mm Beaulieu R16. Using fresh stock-Kodak vision 3 50D-and getting it machine processed looks so different to my usual expired film/home developer combos, almost like digital the grain is so fine. It’s a lot more expensive of course! Took an unglamorous 12.5hr coach to get these shots
