“Girl With Virus” with my daughter Alyvia Balkowitsch, captured in the historical wet plate collodion process of silver on glass. Inspired by the work of Banksy. She turned 9 years old the day before this plate was taken.
Carl Zeiss Tessar 300mm lens, f4.5, 10 seconds of exposure, 8x10" black glass ambrotype, natural light through Northern facing windows and skylight. The virus prop was kindly provided to us by Greg Gerla in Canada.

This quality art paper 11x14” print is from an original 8x10” black glass ambrotype scan. Each print is numbered and signed by Shane Balkowitsch the artist. There are only 100 of these prints being made available for worldwide distribution.

The sale of this print will benefit the Plains Art Museum in Fargo. The museum has been closed because of the pandemic and as an artist I want to use my work to support others. Andy Maus and his team have always supported artists. Now in this time of need I want to do what I can for this fine organization.
