This archive of undeveloped photographs show us how little we’ve all changed:
When Lee Shulman impulsively a bought a box vintage slides a couples years ago, he had no idea it would spark such an obsession in him. Opening the box and holding every single slide up to the light, he discovered so many of them to be a poignant and artfully framed vignette into the life of an anonymous person. “I have always had a fascination for slide photography and as a filmmaker I have always loved the projected image,” Lee says.
So much work goes into sourcing and cataloguing the images. What is it that you gain from archiving these images on a personal level? In terms of how the images are framed, does it feel like people's relationship with the camera has changed over the last 50 yearsImagine that, firstly, you had to have a pretty decent set-up. Taking an image was a complicated process as framing and exposure was never an exact art. Once the image was taken, the film would be sent off and you would receive the slides a month later where you would need a slide projector to see the final image! It’s was a real leap of faith unlike today.
I was particularly interested in the idea of what makes a house a home. This question is at the core of the exhibition and through the images and curation of them I have tried to explore this notion. Often the house is where we feel most secure. It’s where we can let our hair down and just be ourselves away from the constraints of social graces and codes. These images capture very intimate family moments, they are a collective memory that belong to us all.
