Summary
editDescriptionThe Capsizing of Humanity a Wet Plate Collodion Collaboration.jpg |
English: I have always admired The Raft of the Medusa, the humongous oil painting hanging on the wall at the Louvre in France. I thought it would be fascinating to try and capture the romantic and epic feel of that painting in my beloved wet plate collodion process. So I asked for volunteers and collaborators on Facebook and we had a full crew within 15 minutes. So over the eight months we collaborated as a group.
We recreated the epic and tragic voyage of the Medusa, the 1816 tragedy as sea. Only 15 people survived, one of which was the woman Charlotte Picard who later wrote about this horrific adventure. We are basing our inspiration on the 1818 painting by Theodore Gericault called “The Raft of the Medusa”. I am calling this wet plate “The Capsizing of Humanity” to point back to the tragedy itself and to also illuminate the present state of affairs around the world. Bismarck, North Dakota |
