Daniel Farmer New York, NY / Australia Daniel Farmer grew up in rural Australia and now works in New York as a Director of Photography. Influenced by 1980s sci-fi and raw 1970s Eastern European cinema, his work seeks the unusual within the everyday. During a winter visit home, dense fog transformed a familiar landscape. Combining two negatives in the darkroom with varied color filtration, Farmer created a dreamlike image of rediscovered wonder.
