"pool closed" is another part of the "U.S."-series. it is a visual narration of a road-trip through california and nevada.
Technically and aesthetically, i went back a few decades to create these pictures. I used a polaroid slr680 cam with 600-type films for these photographs. That method is to me the analog equivalent to digital photography.
Indeed, even though the whole processing is done "the old way" with chemicals, you still can see your photo a minute after you shot it. Nevertheless, there is still a considerable difference to digital photography, as you cannot only almost instantly see the result but you immediately hold a palpable photograph in your hands. The result is material as opposed to virtual only.
