Illumine is the first monograph devoted to one of the most prominent contemporary artists to specialize in creating photographs without using a camera or negatives. Fabian Miller utilizes simple darkroom methods to record the effects of light on photographic paper. These works of beguiling beauty evoke symbolic and sacred associations though their powerful forms and entrancing colours.
