Beau Daignault explaining the making of his photos.
Beau Daignault recently began to create photographs tinged with a bit of surrealist, or, biomorphic cubism. Avoiding photo assemblage (too close to collage) and disdainful of multiple exposures and ‘Photoshopping’ (not pure enough), he set out to make still-life and figurative images realized wholly in-camera with no external trickery. Because scanner photography is a new form of photography, he wish to start at the beginning, so to speak, and employ devices that were used in early photography, for example in “mise en scène.”
About the Camera
These photographs were created with a scanner camera.
A scanner camera consists of an ordinary still camera integrated with a flatbed scanner; the image is stored onto a computer. The scanner takes the place of the film. To build his first scanner camera, Beau used a 1930's Kodak 620 attached to a heavily modified flatbed scanner. His latest camera uses a 1940's Speed Graphic Combat Edition 4 x 5 field camera, joined to a flatbed scanner powered with batteries.
Both of these artists are exploratory and innovators in their use of scanners. They also are showing us new visual spaces that are characteristic of digital treatment.
