Headline quote from the article: "As digital imaging flourishes, some artists find themselves drawn in a very different direction––toward physicality and unorthodox processes."

http://www.artinamericamagazine.com/news-features/magazine/rematerializing-photography/

In this article, "rematerializing" means....
- Christopher Colville, taking pics of stuff he blows up
- Klea McKenna, discovering photograms
- Matthew Brandt, "sourced the salt for salted paper prints from the subjects themselves by collecting their tears, sweat, sperm, mucus, breastmilk, or blood"
- Farrah Karapetian, uses colored light in the enlarger
- Chris McCaw, light writing to make images at dusk / night

Interesting

Regards, Art
