After: Dreaming in Color After: Dreaming in Color, imagines the history of photography as if in a dream, making color interventions into iconic 19th century photographs, either digitally or by using color filters and a light table. After: Dreaming in Color continues the arc of my investigation into layering appropriated images that I have been pursuing since the late 1970’s, first with collages made from advertising posters and then with the blurred images of the Infinity series that I am known for. The standard histories of photography often pass over the fact that color has been around since the beginning: in Anna Atkins’ cyanotypes; in opalescent daguerreotypes; in hand–colored and sepia toned photographs. In response to this oversight, I have created my own dreamlike history of color photography with an eye toward wit, humor and visual puns—and, as always, an eye for the contrast and harmony of color.
