Artist Photographer Johnny Davis: Cibachrome print from 2, 35mm transparencies: One exposure of 2 Dried Antheriums on a seamless background merged with an exposure of out of focus iris shot in a garden in San Francisco. The idea of an object being a "work of art" emerges, together with the concept of being an artist.

Ilfochrome (formerly known as Cibachrome) is a dye destruction positive-to-positive photographic process used for the reproduction of slides on photographic paper. The prints are made on a dimensionally stable polyester base, essentially a plastic base opposed to traditional paper base. Since it uses azo dyes on a polyester base, the print will not fade, discolor, or deteriorate for a long time. Characteristics of Ilfochrome prints are image clarity, color purity, as well as being an archival process able to produce critical accuracy to the original slide.
