Nanci Kahn + Meredith Kennedy

Kahn+Kennedy’s photographs are meditations on the fleeting quality of sun glint on water. Initially, the pair began by creating cyanotypes of seaweeds and water plants by the water’s edge. Noticing the glitter patterns on the image while processing, enticed them to capture that sparkling, environmental phenomenon. Their photographs are a combination of nature study and scientific wonder – beckoning the viewer below the the surface.
