Wet Plate Collodion Process
2011
Working Harder to Reclaim That Context is a visual metaphor of what happens when research is examined to a point to where it transforms the original intention of analyzed work. This practice raises ethical issues- citations are required for published work that borrows content from one another, but the context of this newer, published work can reinterpret the original intention of the content.
