Liquid light is liquid photographic emulsion, the light sensitive silver-halide material you find in traditional black and white photo papers. Liquid light can be applied with a brush or roller to any semi-porous material, (paper, wood, cloth, etc.) transforming non-photosensitive materials into photographic paintings. Simply warm up liquid light in a warm water bath in the darkroom, evenly coat it to your material under red safelights, and let it dry. After it's dried, it can be exposed with negatives or by contact printing with ortho-litho film, and processed with traditional black and white chemistry.
Below is a slideshow of art works made using liquid emulsions. Wood, clothing, paper, and sometimes even other three-dimensional objects have been transformed into photographic painted surfaces!
