Made by Hand. Crafted by history
Platina Editions is the work of acclaimed photographer Christopher Ireland.
Each hand made photographic print is produced exclusively using traditional and alternative darkroom methods underpinned by more than a century of photographic craft. Platina Editions works are an alchemy of science and art, carrying a unique patina that reveals the soul of the artist, while nodding to the grace and beauty of photography’s origins.
Experience art that places the viewer in a slower rhythm encouraging a more careful appreciation of aesthetic beauty.
"I immerse myself in the art of slowing time to draw out the beauty tucked away in things we rush past, crafting tangible, imperfect images that resonate with timeless elegance.
"My work honours the practice of patience and contemplation."
