Maxwell Marshall is a visual artist based in Maine. During his studies at the Academy of Art in San Francisco, he was introduced to a more flexible approach to photography, which encouraged him to develop new ideas and explore his technique beyond the realms of a more traditional arts education. His creative practice is centered around darkroom experimentation and historical photographic processes.
Maxwell uses the darkroom as a visual laboratory, exposing and manipulating photographic materials to investigate our broader human experience through light and experimental photographic techniques. Equal parts explorer and artist, he devotes several months of every year to documenting far-reaching places and cultures, bringing back with him the colors and shapes for his prints.
