Quiet Places

by Jim Sincock

This body of work was created by Jim Sincock for his 2015 Fellowship exhibition with the Racine Art Museum and explores Quiet Places. Some of these are physical places such as in nature, or even an empty room. Others are quiet places in one’s mind. The processes used in Jim’s work for this exhibition range from historic traditional photographic methods to modern digital methods. Jim mainly uses large format cameras to produce 4 x 5 or 8 x 10 negatives or tintypes which are then printed as traditional silver based prints or modern carbon inkjet prints. Several pieces also use encaustic and mixed media over photographic prints. Jim’s goal with these pieces is to step beyond the tradition of framed photography and print editions and to create unique one-of-a-kind pieces which blur the lines between photography and painting.
