Description

Collection - Ghosts of the Prairies Title - Nanton Elevators Series II Edition 10/10 5 tez Medium - Polaroid 59ER 4×5 Film (Sepia Positive) Artist/Photographer - Stephen Murphy aka The Polaroid Guy Nanton Series I A five image mini-collection within the main collection. These grain elevators were designated a historic resource by the AB government, Canada, in May 2022. About one hour south of Calgary these three elevators have been successfully preserved and are now a part of the Canadian Grain Elevator Discovery Centre. www.nantongrainelevators.com 50% of the primary sales will be donated to the centre of all four pieces in this mini series. The Collection In 2008 I set off on a road trip from Calgary AB, Canada to the western edge of Ontario, the Canadian Sheild area. To and fro I captured grain elevators on film in MB, SK & AB. These were shot on Fuji Velvia CN slide film. Once back home in the studio I used the slides to create Polaroid images on EXPIRED 669ER film using Daylab Slide Printer. Many images have film aberrations, colour shift and other flaws. The resulting images were what I was hoping for: A ghostly, weathered look mimicing the grain elevators themselves. It has taken me 18 years to get to this point where I feel comfortable in sharing these with you. I hope you enjoy this journey as I release them 2 a day over 20 days: One standard Polaroid & one double exposure Polaroid.
