[CLAUDIA KUNIN] Ghost Stories & 3-D Art.
Claudia Kunin worked for many years as a commercial photographer with her work featured in large editorials such as Rolling Stone. But entering her fifties and faced with a life-threatening illness, she decided she wanted to succeed as a fine artist. Using old family photographs and daguerrotypes, she began to craft a dream-like, intensely personal body of work.
Using Photoshop, Kunin offsets various color elements within each image. These are later recombined in the mind of the viewer when the work is seen through 3D glasses. The experience is extraordinary, like a peek into dark, secret and mysterious world.
Kunin’s work is in the Getty Research Institute, the Smithsonian, the Museum of Photographic Arts, and has recently been featured in Sunstruck at the Wall Space Gallery in Santa Barara, and Digital Darkroom at the Annenberg Space for Photography.
Claudia is fascinated by the stories of the past. And what she shows us today is how she brings those stories to life using her original and one of a kind, 3-D imaging.

That has to be one of the coolest techniques I’ve seen on Framed! She’s such a unique person too, and her stories were really trippy.

I not only found her work fascinating….she is a fascinating person!
I never knew you could turn a photo into 3D after the fact. I always thought it was something that had to be done during the creating process. Thank you so much [Framed] for making such a unique and interesting show! :~)
