WTF is CMYK? Simply put, the CMYK process is a method used to screenprint photos. The image is broken down into four layers: cyan (C), magenta (M), yellow (Y), and key (black, K). Each color is applied in separate layers, allowing for a full range of colors through a combination of these inks. I’ve enjoyed getting back into film photography over the last few years, and the CMYK process has enabled me to combine that passion with my love of screenprinting.
This particular set came from three in-camera double exposures created by taking an initial photo—in this case, the sphere visuals inside the venue. After the show ended, I rewound the roll and exposed the film for a second time, capturing the Stealie on the dome outside. Double exposures generally rely on a lot of luck with how the frames overlap, but every once in a while…. you get lucky.
Each set comes with three 12×18 signed and numbered prints featuring 35mm film photos that I took from Dead & Co.’s sphere shows from earlier this summer.
Edition of 60
