Walead Beshty, Travel Picture: Transparency (ORD/LHR, May 9, 2008 fuji NPS, 160) (2008). Limited edition for the Zabludowicz Collection.
Walead Beshty’s large-scale photographic works are abstract images that tell the story of their own making. Produced by folding and processing light-sensitive photographic paper, the works develop patterns of angles, creases and folds. Their colours are generated by the chemicals used in the developing process. Even though they depict abstract colours, light and shapes, Beshty’s are works with a specific narrative, in the sense that they foreground the processes through which they have come into being.
