Glass Cities: Cliche-Verre in the Digital Age

Courtney Johnson

Friday, October 18 - 4:00PM to 4:45PM
UNCC Center City Building // 204 Lecture Hall

Glass Cities is a series of cliche-verre cityscapes. French for glass negative, cliche-verre is a photo- painting hybrid process; the work begins as a painting on glass which is scanned, enlarged and printed photographically.

Historically employed during times of change, cliche-verre serves as a bridge between the past and the future as we transition to the digital era, and as we move from the era of the landscape to the cityscape. The images in this series depict characters in our new global mythological system: cities.
