Mariah Robertson

chemically treated RA-4 paper in artist's frame

2013

Mariah Robertson's work pushes the boundaries of traditional photographic processes by chemically manipulating RA-4 photographic paper without the use of a camera or conventional darkroom techniques. The resulting abstract explosions of vivid color and organic form emerge directly from the artist's experimental interventions with chemical reactions on light-sensitive materials. Presented in the artist's own frame, the work challenges notions of authorship and control, embracing chance and process as central elements of its creation.
