 | | Transformation In the Winter/Spring of 2011, I had the opportunity to spend some time in a beautiful studio up in Harlem where I was stimulated by both the people and the surroundings . The resulting body of work is "Transformation", as I started to use forms of art which I had not tried before such as painting, installation and even a performance piece. |

 | | Translucence In this series, I am beginning to have more control over my materials and process. I feel color and use it to express a connection between the human spirit and the universe. This body of work was printed between 2007 and 2009. |
 | | Introduction This series is an exploration of materials and my process. It is the beginning of my quest to gain more control over my materials by developing an understanding of both reverse color and texture. This body of work was printed between 2005 and 2007. |

| KRISTIN V.N. GAMBELL: BIO
BFA Photography - Massachusetts College of Art 1999
Growing up in Boston, I was exposed to many aspects of art and culture at a young age. I had the opportunity in my college years to both volunteer and study abroad. My creative passion stems from these initial experiences and is reflected in my work.
STATEMENT:
Traditionally, photograms are a black and white contact print made using objects found in nature such as leaves. They are made by placing something opaque or translucent on light sensitive material and then exposing it to light. I have taken this process several steps further by creating a collage on glass that replaces a traditional negative in the photo printing process. This work does not involve a camera and is non-digital.
I have always been fascinated by the quality of light that translucent objects emit. I found the intense textures and colors that this process produced to be captivating and have evolved it.
