Roadkill #1

This series called Roadkill is based on a collection of squashed cans found on the roadside and on railway tracks. I've been collecting them for around twenty years and these ones in the images are the old style tin cans that get really rusty (quite different from the current aluminium cans).

Rather than using a camera on a copy stand I used my Epson V700 scanner as the 'camera'.

I have made final prints in 20" x 32" Lambda versions and as inkjet prints on archival rag papers (Hahnemuhle Photo Rag and Epson Archival Matte papers) on an Epson SP2100 printer.

I am currently exhibiting this image in a staff show at NMIT's A-Space Gallery, where I work.
