The Good Grey
Impossible is pleased to announce the opening of its first UK exhibition ever. From 3rd December 2010 to 6th January 2011 "The Good Grey" will show the vivid magic of analog instant film by Impossible.
Hosted by North Tea Power in Manchester "The Good Grey" features 11 artists from Manchester who have been experimenting with the new Impossible films, capturing their everyday life within the classic square format.
For Peter Defty, one of the artists, “it’s simply the nature of the finished object, with its imperfections and retro feel, as well as it being the exception rather than the rule in today’s world of retouching and uniformity, which make it fun to use”.
Other artists include: Robert Bailey, Ben Grainger, Steve Hockett, Jane Liza Spindler, Wayne Anthony Lew, Sebastian Matthes, Sebastian Mariner, Deanna Halsall, Iwan Roberts and Will France.
