Recent commission in progress for The Macallan Estate in Scotland, using their own whisky and plant species from the estate in Scotland to produce anthotype prints to be used in estate designs- yet to come. Made with plant juice, whiskey and cloudy autumn 7 day exposure with daylight.
With this ephemeral process, prints fade upon further exposure to light.

I’m excited to announce that I have been shortlisted in the Royal Photographic Society 165th
International Photography Exhibition with my wet plate from Slavic Bestiary series, depicting original folk costume of Turon-part of polish caroling tradition - shot in Muzeum im. Władysława Orkana in Rabka-Zdroj, PL.

The International Photography Exhibition has been held almost every year since 1854 and is the longest running exhibition of its kind in the world. In the early years, the exhibition included work from some of the world's most eminent photographers including Julia Margaret Cameron, Roger Fenton, Edward Steichen and Paul Strand.

I have been recently sent an instant back by Lomography, using it with my cambo large format. Results summed up in this interview for lomography magazine:

Visual representation of 'Les Vulnerables' album by Laertis https://laertismusic.com shoot using historic and alternative photographic processes of wet collodion: Album Cover (wet collodion, platinum print print & gold), two singles covers (wet collodion), music video (shoot on 8mm film), social Media content  (colour slides 6x6).

Solo show ‘Family Tales’ received Grand Prix at Vintage Photo Festival in Bydgoszcz.

The idea of the festival is to honour its photographic herotage-Foton was one of the largest polish manufacturers of photographic materials based in Bydgoszcz until the 90’s.

Excited to announce my collaboration with IONNYK e-paper frames. Works from The Grandmothers & Slavic Bestiary series are available as a part of their discover collection.
