Ever Your Friend: Instant Scale presents a collection of images abstracted from the photo collection of the Lesbian Herstory Archives in Brooklyn, NY. Compiled during a month in residence at the Archive, artist Anna Campbell has modified the images, isolating only hands, bare arms, and any objects they may hold. Campbell’s selective editing prompts the viewer to fill in the gaps. The images are intimately-scaled to match the dimensions of a classic SX-70 Polaroid photograph; a horizontal cut underscores the space of the SX-70’s film’s heavy bottom margin. With signed and numbered laser-engraved edition sheet.
