Silver and Light
Ian Ruhter makes images, but not the same way other photographers do. Adapting the 19th century process of wet plate collodion, he creates dramatic, large-format single images "with silver and light," in a gigantic camera fashioned from an old delivery van. Ian invested every penny of his life savings for the opportunity to radically reconfigure the art of photography. "Life grants us a series of opportunities and those opportunities come with a price," he says. "If you'd been searching your whole life for something you love, and you found it, what would you be willing to sacrifice?"
