Publisher Note
Ice is a series of unique cyanotype prints made in freezing landscapes. Like Riepenhoff's previous projects, this work is made in collaboration with the landscape, where elements from water and the shore physically inscribe into the photographic materials.
Made in waters ranging from Walden Pond to remote creeks in western Washington, the prints are full of subtle details, each expressing a slightly different temperature, type of water, and crystalline structure of ice forming on photographic paper.
Through this process, Riepenhoff participates in a type of “collaboration” with the landscape, in which she opens herself to chance and embraces the textures of nature into her working process. Variations of inky blues, flecks of gold and spots of white make up the dreamlike, abstract prints and create a raw and physical impression of nature.
