I love doing this kind of manipulation, and obviously a lot of other people do, too. But why? What is it about making an image look like a fifty-year-old photo that's been kicking around in somebody's dresser drawer for all that time? Part of the answer is that artists have always loved creating windows to new worlds. Personally, an image like this allows me to escape to a different time and place. I feel an emotional nostalgia for a place that never was, yet it feels as real as anything in my waking life. And that's it! Artists like IrenaS are dream makers. And to me, dreams are as essential as the air I breath.
