Polaroid Tank Top

This fine art print is a beautiful reproduction of an original Polaroid SX-70 image captured in 1982. The SX-70 camera, invented by Dr. Edwin H.

The image of grape leaves set against weathered barn wood has been manipulated to create a unique, stylized effect, similar to the technique used by Lucas Samaras in his Polaroid manipulations. This gives the print a dreamlike quality, adding to the rustic charm and beauty of the scene. The attention to detail and careful composition of the image make it perfect for anyone who appreciates the beauty of nature and the power of artistic expression.

I opened a studio and lab business while still in high school and eventually ended up selling equipment and supplies for an old-school camera shop. That job...
