Still lifes by Michael Burns
From January 14, 2016 to April 15, 2018, my friend the photographer Michael Burns used my iMacon 2 film scanner to digitalize many negatives from his lifetime of work in photography. We arranged settings on the scanner for his specific needs and he worked diligently and daily in my studio, transferring his work to this new media. Michael came and went on his own schedule, which didn’t cross often with my own, so he would leave enigmatic traces of his visit for me to discover and enjoy, incorporating materials from all parts of the studio.
Because scanning involves lengthy waiting periods during the process, he would often browse my photo book library and leave titles out for my attention, posing questions and contemplations about the work of others we respect and enjoy in our field.
The simple still-lifes express the wit, humor and quirky intelligence of this wonderful man.
These visual notes are Michael’s, I merely recorded them.
