Matthew Houston (1961) - Untitled (Studio Nude)

Matthew Houston, Untitled (Studio Nude), circa 1990s.

Polaroid 8"x10", unique. Stamped on the back and on the reverse. Described on the front.

Good condition

Quoting from the artist:

From a series of Polaroids started in the late 1990s. The studio, a sailing ship from 1920 moored in London, England, also served as a venue for regular theatre and cabaret evenings. The small stage I built was part of the studio, and I began to take photographs of performers, friends, actors, and models.

The Polaroid material used for these photographs is paper-based and known as peel-apart, available in 10x8", 5x4", and 3x4" formats until the early 2000s when it was discontinued. Do not confuse it with the 'integral' Polaroid material now being manufactured by Polaroid Originals.
