Born in London, Elizabeth Sandford Richardson is a performance artist working with a cross range of media, including experimental darkroom photography, lenticulars, and holography. Her performance captures the idea of photography, subsequently refining her own visual and conceptual vocabulary that emerged through her focus on using the darkroom, holography and lenticulars performativity. Challenging the notion of what can be seen as a performance space.
‘Performergrams’ are images created in a darkroom, through using sound, light and photographic paper. The basic principle is to convert sound in to light formations, to then translate that light (Split in to high, mid and low tones) onto photographic paper casting an image of the sound, after developing. This new series of works depicts ‘Sound Landscapes’ of London town, including Waterloo, Camden Town, Portobello Road, Bethnal Green, Soho and Brixton.
Elizabeth’s work can be found across Europe in public and private art galleries. She performs world-wide and is currently living and working in London, UK, based at The London Museum of Water and Steam.
