Thank you to everyone who came to our screenings & exhibition at La Cinémathèque! The exhibition is over now, but I am offering the prints for sale at a discount for the rest of the month in an effort to reimburse the production and printing costs of the exhibition.
You can reply directly to this email, or send me a message at laurencephilomenephoto@gmail.com if you are interested in purchasing a print!
I’m happy to ship these both locally and internationally.
These are all archival pigment c-prints on 300 gsm cotton paper, which is the highest quality of print I like to produce. After April, they will be added to my gallery archive and sold at regular price.
