An Unplanned Garden

A short walking series in a stand of coastal pines north of the studio. Vertical trunks, filtered light, and the same three paths returning.
A small still-life series photographed on the cedar shelf above the desk. Books, folded paper, a cup, and one plate of light.
A short winter series photographed at first light from the ridge above the studio. Six prints, edition of twelve.
Three nights photographed from inside the studio, looking up at rain moving across the skylight. Long exposures on colour film.
Paper Fold Atelier is a small photography studio led by Ellis Vandermeer. Prints are pulled by hand in editions of eight to twelve, numbered and signed on the reverse.
The studio publishes two to four new series each year. Long-term projects — the canal path, the pine woods, the cedar shelf — are extended slowly and shown in small formats.
