In a Shaded Place

In a Shaded Place


In McMurdos 'In a Shaded Place' project, each child is digitally 'doubled', so that the become twins These digital mirror images act out scenes of curiosity, cooperation or competition where each child becomes the other's playmate or rival.






Despite the fact that these images were produced in 1995 the manipulation (doubled subjects) of them looks very natural. This shows us McMurdo's long-term experience and  skills in digital media.






She takes her images with analogue medium format camera which probalby makes her work harder in terms of image editing. Nevertheless, this tells us how good she is in combining those two (analogue and digital) techniques.
