Eye Deal is a collection of thirty color infrared photographs of global locations taken on the break of the millennium over a six year period until the film was discontinued. The images were captured with a fish-eye lens on Kodak EIR film. The effect is that of a psychedelic vision of the world filled with the idealism of a 1970’s traveler. They evoke a beautiful sense of nostalgia and positivity. The infrared film results in the prints being highly sensitive to UV lighting creating a 3D effect to the series completing my tribute to the free spirit of photography and the era that influenced me.
Flavour Pill Review 21-09-2006 By Brianna Smith:
Peter Holm’s photographic technique is at once honed, precise, fanciful, and experimental. The photos he captures with a fish-eye lens and infrared film — a swimming pool, an apartment building, a shadow on the beach, solitary figures captured in their most everyday moments — portray the subtle and ordinary aspects of the world through his blithe, fresh, and illuminating sensibility. A native of the UK, he brings his work to the Bay Area at one of SoMa’s newest gallery spaces. (BMS)
