Electric Paradise No. 5

Palm trees transformed into luminous coral and orange tones against a gradient sky of electric pinks and blues through experimental analog photography. Shot on film and processed using film soup—controlled chemical interventions that create unrepeatable color shifts—this piece demonstrates how experimental technique can render familiar tropical subjects in completely unexpected color territories.

The film soup process generates chemical reactions that create these vibrant coral and orange palm tones against the dreamy pink-to-blue atmospheric gradient. These saturated colors and ethereal overlays emerge from physical interactions between exposed film and experimental chemical baths during development, producing a color palette that feels simultaneously tropical and otherworldly.

From the Palm Abstractions collection, Electric Paradise series—where palms become studies in bold experimental color.
