Carol Jerrems (1949-1980): Photographic Artist, Josef Lebovic Gallery, 3 December 2016 - 11 February 2017, cat. 2
This image was taken on a film set where both Wallace and Jerrems were working while they were students at Prahran Technical College in Victoria. Fellow student and friend, Peter Leiss believes this image was most likely produced using the developer Rodinal, which was in common use at the College. This developer, one of the oldest formulas made by Agfa, was in use from 1891 until 2014. This image, which looks solarised, was created by "fogging" resulting from exposure to light during development. Ref: Peter Leiss. This is only known print of this image.
