Showing her works throughout the Philadelphia area, Anne Saint-Peter studied at Temple University, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and the Fleisher Art Memorial. Starting in 2008, Saint Peter deviated from her discipline of watercolor painting to research and learn alternative photographic techniques, such as Gum, Platinum & Palladium printing, Carbon printing, Collodion printing, Kallitype, and Chrysotope. Each image was shot as a “serendipitous event,” meaning that they have no definite outcome, so the image can be considered a work in progress as it is being taken. The resulting look is achieved by manually advancing the film in small increments. This results in a “convergent-style” photograph where the integration of multiple layers has been created in the camera. Saint Peter describes her photographs as “merging of view points, of experiences, of time, of motion suspended, and the essence of a place that we know as our memory.”
