Photograph made from directly exposing a raw colour roll of film to the night sky for the duration of a lunar eclipse.

In Aotearoa New Zealand, I unrolled a raw roll of 35mm colour negative by hand to the night sky for the eclipse duration. The resulting print holds the complete roll as a single image: an encounter between light-sensitive material, lunar light, time and touch.
