I make a contact print with a digital negative onto silver-gelatin photo paper. I never develop the image. The latent image is suspended in a light-safe frame, never to be revealed. After displaying the piece I learn that the image slowly reveals itself over time. I lose control over the image despite my attempts to contain it and to protect myself from it.

UNOPENED LETTER.
4 1/8” X 9 1/2”
I send a request to all of my exes:
Please write me a letter with all of the things you never told me while we were together. I will never open it.
I receive one letter, sent with the condition that I open it someday before I die.

ADDITIVE desktop PRINT ON COPY PAPER

I receive an e-mail that is too painful to read but too perplexing to stop reading. To protect myself from its contents I reprint it repeatedly onto itself until it is no longer legible.
