Elaine Duigenan: Highlife, 2005 via the Victoria and Albert Museum.

“This is a digital photogram, or ’scannergram’, a camera-less photograph made by placing an object directly on a computer scanner. The image is digitally manipulated before being printed out.

The photograph comes from a series called ‘Intimate Archaeology’ in which Elaine Duigenan investigates the varying forms and textures of women’s stockings, from vintage to more contemporary nylons, using the same titles as those used as descriptions on packaging.” [V&A]
