Description
Fiona Pardington’s fields of investigation have been psychoanalysis, medicine, voyeurism, memory and the body, the history of the photographic image and the nature of the relationship between the photographer and subject, particularly as it relates to sexual difference, through the ambiguities of a simultaneous solicitation and resistance. She is best known as a specialist in ‘pure’ or analogue photographic darkroom technique, most notably hand printing and toning.
