About this artwork
This version Waiting for purgatory was originally one of the tone test prints I usually experiment with when I make new prints.
I was curious to know how the print looked toned with selected toners, giving a quick fix and wash, I then let it dry and put it aside in the darkroom where it stayed inside a tube for a little over two years.
Fast forward. Whilst I was explaining to some students about how many prints it can take to make a final, I remembered… the Waiting for purgatory print. I took it out of the tube to show the class and as I didn't fix and wash the print fully during the initial print, the toners had reacted with other chemicals and created a totally new spectrum of colour. I quickly soaked the print, fixed it properly to stop any further changes and washed.
Paul Gadd is a British photographer based in Seoul, deeply rooted in classical film photography and darkroom printing, with extensive experience in fashion, portraiture, and documentary work. His technique is hands-on and experimental—scratching and toning negatives, applying mixed-media during hand-printing, and finishing with processes like bleaching or encaustic, making each print a unique original. Through his evocative images, Paul channels his personal experiences and surroundings, conveying a rich tapestry of emotions—from melancholy and anger to humour and love—inviting viewers to deeply connect with his evolving visual narratives.
