John Aho "He Loves the Sound of Motors and He Loves His Hair"
This is a Van Dyke Brown print - which is an antique photo process. John made the photo emulsion and coated a piece of printmaking paper. Then he made a collage of found imagery on a board and shot it with a copy camera to create a giant negative. Then, he contact printed it in the sun. It was then developed and fixed with photo fixer.
John has long enjoyed making overly complicated artwork that no one will buy using outdated and time consuming methods of production. He has wondered if he should start getting paid for NOT making art.
