Oote Boe

The glass plates in Oote Boe’s images have deteriorated naturally. Water, weather, air, light, acid or paper have caused the emulsion to deteriorate. 

The natural deterioration of these turn of the century images (’archeological images’, Oote Boe calls them) has then been developed and transformed using photoshop.

Here Oote Boe’s images are juxtaposed with John Woolrich’s Ending Up.
