“I work with urban landscape photography and do subjective documentary work–working with in-camera mutple exposures.”
–Rob Kangas
“I’m a lifelong film guy. Sure, I also make digital photographs like everybody else. But when it comes to art photographs, I’m a film guy. We are all unavoidably imprinted by our 1st love. My time and circumstances dropped me into the heyday of 35mm film. After decades in the darkroom, I now follow a hybrid practice of recording my images on film and outputting onto digital media.”
