David on the Willimansett Bridge: Photo by Robert Seto 2011
David E. Matuszek… (Why the pretentious middle initial? Well he doesn’t want to be confused with another David Matuszek.) David has a degree in history but works in manufacturing when not exposing silver to light. A photographer, artist, failed writer, and published poet. He is also life long New Englander who does not mind the cold, but as a die hard Red Sox fan, does not want to be called a Yankee.
David’s current view on photography is that it is a search for the lost. He loves the landscapes of New England’s manufacturing towns. Documenting the death of industry and supply before many of these places are demolished by neglect. His main medium for doing this is his trusty 1920′s field camera making 4×5 and 5×7 negatives and printing them as traditional cyanotypes and silver prints.
