Fine Art Food photography by photographer Paul Williams

" The Association Gallery in London was putting together a joint exhibition on food. I got to thinking about this and could visualise the wonderful big glossy photo prints of cream cakes and juicy burgers. It came at a time when I was becoming increasingly concerned about how we were loosing touch with what of what is. A survey of primary school kids had revealed that hardly any of the kids associated pork with a pig. And so I came up with "You Are What You Eat" photo series for the exhibition. The title of each photo print is a well know gastronomic recipe title. The photos were rather striking against the predictably pristine colour food photos. They caught the eye of radio 4 presenter John Walters, who had come to the exhibition to research food a programme he was making for his BBC programme Walters Weekly. He asked me to do an interview and I will try and post it her soon " Paul Williams

Polaroid produced for a short time in the 1990's a very high speed black and white 10x 8 print material with no negative. Paul Williams discovered that if you pulled the Polaroid early the black backing that held a latent picture would solorize. This left a grey negative image against a solid black background. As the backing plastic negative dried crystals built up and Paul Williams started copying these onto 5x4 negative film to create final negative to print from. Paul Williams nicknamed these "Soloroids"
