Frank Machalowski - Dorotheenstraße Berlin

This is a photograph from the series 'multiexpo' by Frank Machalowski.
There is an artist stamp with title, year, edition and sign on the back.
It is an original hand-printed print. The image was printed on baryta pearl paper using the lith printing process. Lith printing is a darkroom technique of overexposing a black & white, infrared, or color negative onto a suitable gelatin silver paper, and then only partially developing it in a very dilute Lith developer. This can produce prints with special properties and characteristics in terms of tonal distribution and response to toners.
The photo was taken on 35mm film using multiple exposure in Berlin.

Important! The paper is slightly wavy.

About the series:
The multiexpo series by Frank Machalowski transforms familiar landmarks into dreamlike visions through analog multiple exposure. Layers of light and structure merge to create a surreal depth where reality and memory intertwine. Each image seems to breathe—hovering between past and present, between clarity and dissolution. The result is a poetic collection of urban and architectural memories, capturing the transient essence of time on film.
