Jerry Uelsmann

Jerry Uelsmann - Untitled
Uelsmann is best known for his creative work in the dark-room. He often spent several days and up to 12 enlargers at a time to create a single image. He created his images by merging film he had previously shot together in the dark room. Similarly to Bill Brandt's 'A perspective of nudes' photography, Uelsmann uses a mixture of soft tones and high contrast, creating a fantasy, dream-like and dramatic image.
