This exposition delves into the realm of sustainable material reuse, re-thinking and recycling material in still photography. The artist explores repurposing techniques through personal experiences, approaching Bokashi, a composting chemical to replenish C-41 development for colour-negative film. The exposition aims to reflect on alternative practices in photographic chemistry, recycling and repurposing materials. It is a sustainable artistic journey that aims to breathe new life into forgotten objects, expanding the discourse on environmental consciousness.

In this exposition, I also integrated a summer-exposed piece of film using direct sunlight and a method known as Physical Development. This technique, dating back to the early days of photography, involves developing strips of an expired 16mm motion picture film at the moment of exposure. To accomplish this, I employed coffee as an organic developing agent called Caffenol.
