In recent years, Jo Bradford’s experimentation with unique photographic artworks has seen her using instant film – much like a polaroid. The process here happens in exposure times of just fractions of seconds. In 2022 she has taken a new direction and moved her creative practice out of the darkroom and into her garden. Confetti was created over the course of 2 months. Under cover of dark night skies, with only moonlight to guide her, she rapidly flashes split second exposures of light while showers of coloured petals flutter down in between the light and the film.
These explorations resulted in unique records of the moments she captured the traces of colour and light on to the paper, all faster than the blink of an eye.
The works were gradually built up into this unique collage over the several months of making the exposures. Working as if with an unexpressed jigsaw puzzle that was forming up as the individual puzzle pieces were created one at a time.
