Light Experiments

Full-on brilliant set of images found on flickr.

'Refraction patterns made by light passing through various glass and transparent objects.

Analogue images captured directly on to 35mm film.

This is 'lensless' photography - the object itself
becomes the lens.'

Superexpresso is Italian artist Michele Angelo who's living and working in that greatest of all cities Barcelona. Some really nice illustration work and typography including a waxy treatment for The Impossible Lamp and a collaboration with my personal favourite and big-time crush Alex Trochut.
