Self Portrait with Calumet 8×10— Glass Dryplate, 2024
Danielle Quenell (b. 1985, Denver) is an artist and educator residing in the Pacific Northwest. Working primarily in historical and alternative darkroom processes, her photographs are unique, one of a kind objects which challenge conventional ideas of reproduction and fidelity.
By embracing the limitations of antique equipment— and often working in found or discontinued film and paper stock— every photograph is an exercise in the decay and imperfection of material and memory.
Danielle is an instructor at Photographic Center Northwest where she leads workshops on alternative process photography, fine art presentation and experimental self portraiture.
