“Scanner art?” “What is that?” “How did you make that?”
“What did you make that with?” Those were some of the responses that I got when
I presented my thesis to the class. It was a totally different style that I was
use to shooting, but I knew that this was the way for me to go for my thesis.
Scannography, Scanography, Scanner Art is the process of capturing images while
using your flatbed scanner. The process is fairly easy and is actually fun
because you can experiment with so many objects.

My thesis was titled, Healing
and these are two images that I had to choose from. I originally went with the
darker image because it needed to be in the series.
There are some amazing artists out there that are producing stunning images
with their scanners. Some people may not consider this to be photography and
that is okay! Art is an expression created by the artist.

Some amazing Scannography Artist to check out:
I have always known of photographer Henry
Hargreaves but I never knew him by his scanography images. He's mainly known
for his high fashion photography or his food photography. Hargreaves created a
one of a kind fashion shoot for a jewelry line with using just a scanner.
