Contemporary cameraless photography from master printer Michael Flomen. Master printer Michael Flomen expands his darkroom out into the wild to create large-scale, avant-garde, cameraless photograms in confluence with nature. From the streets of the world to the wilds of North America, this monograph traces in 182 images and 8 critical essays the evolution of Flomen's originality of vision.

As a way to take on abstraction with photography, Michael Flomen leaves behind the camera and embraces his light-sensitive materials. Elements such as water, the light emitted from fireflies, wind, rain, and other natural phenomena are emblematic of his work. Collaborating with nature, Flomen creates monumental photograms, revealing things we cannot see with the naked eye.

The art in this book comes to us at a critical time when humanity is learning to mend its relationship with the environment.
