Lisen Stibeck has returned to the roots of photography in her new book “Undertow”, working with the collodion wet plate process, where every exposure requires extensive effort with unpredictable results. Parallel to this ancient process Stibeck has developed her own technique where she allows the emulsion of polaroid photography to live and evolve past the finished exposure.
“Undertow” explores the world of dreams, memory, alternate realities, and parallel lives. These pictures were born somewhere beyond the reach of the Artist’s conscious self; images that she has then attempted to translate into photography, drawing inspiration from the places that have always inspired her in her work – Sweden, Morocco, France, Mexico, and Iceland.
