BKIFI Films is a production project, born out of the desire to create a film stock informed by my experimentation with photographic materials. Particularly, a desire to place grids on film in a way that the film could then be passed on and shot by others, developing with the photographer’s image in addition to the grid. Frequent, personal use of grid organization in software and interior design inspired hand drawn grids in my 2016 works which offered a vision of grids on photo materials. Looking further back, as a long time user of instant film, the disappointment of never getting my hands on Spectra grid film has always traveled with me. Fast forward to late 2018, and the concept for how to make this dream a reality, clicked into place. After weeks of experimentation, countless rolls tested, I was satisfied with results and launched the very first batch of 35mm rolls in February 2019. The rest is history. You can now check out the growing library of images photographers have gone on to shoot with the 20+ styles of modified 35mm film I’ve released since then, through Brooklyn Instant Film Initiative (@bkifi_films) |
