Igor Vasiliadis evokes a provocative style, but still maintains an
artistic quality to the images. You can really feel the vibrations
of the moment through his images. In Vasiliadis' own words, "I love
old techniques and equipment with long, up to one minute exposures,
because it gives time to the soul of my models to come out from
deep inside. All vibrations of the body, all temporary emotions and
insignificant thoughts reflections are averaged and disappear...All
the magic of the real beauty stays and reinforces. Dark tonality,
artifacts of drying emulsion and all the mystics brought by silver
and cyanides create the world of mystery, covered from our eyes in
temporary and momentary world." The world that Vasiliadis has
captured in his photographs are a true example of art...one that
has been shared and communicated so deeply with the audience. Truly
magical pieces and one-of-a-kind. Vasiliadisshoots directly on
blackened silver 8x10 plates activated with cadmium solts contained
in emulsion - a procedure that is similar to wet plates used in the
mid-nineteenth century, and modified with a technique that is truly
his own. Then, they are scanned for large format prints or contact
prints on albumen paper. This process gives us the signature look
of Igor Vasiliadis' pieces. Vasiliadis shares his thoughts on the
images, "Sometimes you see real angel wings in the final image,
sometimes you are shivering from seeing succubus... Poisonous
vapors of substances used in the process of developing and emulsion
ether, change your consciousness to the stage when you see things
in a different way. The Future and the past are visible and are
parts of the Same."
