Own Work - Photography: Emulsion Lifts Gone Wrong

 For a previous project I worked on Polaroid emulsion lifts to convey a chaotic natural element (water) to something man made. I decided due to the success of this to manipulate the process by layering 2 images, one over another to show the juxtaposition between controlled environment and uncontrolled. I choose to do this in the setting of Barbican in London (A popular modernist development). Unfortunately the effect didn't make the message clear and so in large respects was a failure, however I did get some interesting distorted negatives from the back of the Polaroid film, which have proven much more interesting (below emulsion lifts).
