Description: This is a stunning mixed-media artwork containing black and white negatives captured by famous Chicago-based street photographer Vivian Maier. The negatives used date from roughly 1966-1973 and are captured onto 120 medium format Kodak Safety Film. The images feature many different subject matter. Maier was an American street photographer and activist, known for her portrayal of working-class life in Chicago during the 1970s. Her photographs also depict civil rights issues, animals, and Americana. The mixed-media artwork was created by Scott Whitworth using the negatives of ViViAN MAiER. This negative collage is a rare piece of art, a unique glimpse into Maier's world through her lens and into the Fine Art World through the critical skepticism of NotScallen. It is perfect for collectors of fine art photography, Americana enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates the beauty of black and white imagery. With its exquisite detail and historical significance, this negative is an excellent addition to any collection. The negatives of Vivian Maier's included in this piece have been physically reworked by myself, artist NotScallenShitworth, for the multi-media, time-based artwork “Vivian Maier's Plastic". The exact image capture dates for this negative aren't known, though other images from the ARTHoLE Collection of Vivian Maier negatives were dated to being from between roughly 1966-1973. This original negative was transformed into the current artwork between 2009 and 2023. Due to the unique nature of this artwork NO RETURNS are offered. Upon completed payment the artwork will be safely packaged and l shipped to you within 2 business days. Please ask any questions before bidding or purchasing, thank you!
