A new series of cameraless photographs by Andrew Hall is now showing at Momed in Atwater Village, Los Angeles.
Curated specially for the restaurant’s interior, the six large pieces record the pattern, harmony and complex beauty of interacting liquid chemicals as they are applied to the surface of light sensitive photographic paper
These beautiful Chemigrams are a joy to experience in this environment, and represent the cream of the artist's current work.
On view until January 2022.

Light Touch
This latest series of analog images from Andrew Hall returns to the roots of the photographic process. Created in the darkroom, each unique Photogram traces the journey of pure light across light-sensitive silver gelatin paper.
Simultaneously echoing the earliest photographic images and Japanese sumi-e brush paintings, these new works further redefine the boundaries of what photography can be.

Chemigrams
Returning to the darkroom to produce this most recent series of images has felt like a quantum leap forward.
These works are created with the very DNA of photography- light, and chemicals that reveal its effects on a sensitized surface.
Extending my exploration of fluid dynamics, these pieces manifest the interaction between photosensitive material, liquid developer and various resists to create a new language within abstract photography.
The Future is Green
Continued experiments with sound and motion push back the limits of what photography can be. Photographing the effect of music as it passes through liquid reveals a visible manifestation of harmony; Sound becoming vision.
Sound Made Visible
A new series of images from Andrew Hall continues to challenge perceptions of what photography can be by recording the beautiful harmonic patterns created by sound passing through liquid.
Reflected light dances across the surface of these photographs, revealing a variety of waveforms, transforming the audible into a new world of the visible.

Time 6-9pm
DIS/EXISTS is a group show during the Month of Photography Los Angeles (MOPLA) that brings together photographs of two seemingly contradictory but co-existing perspectives.
