Molly Walsh is a Florida-based artist that combines the human body with themes of nature to explore the notion of decay and the reclaimation that happens to the body when one dies. Other themes that she explores can be described as more broad, like sexuality and memory. Her current project is the documentation of tattoo shops that reveal the body as a canvas.
Molly uses 35mm, medium/large format film, and digital within her practice. Even though she began only taking digital images, film photography gives an image that rich value and raw grain that digital can’t replicate. The process of loading, developing, and enlarging the film adds a physicality that she has fallen in love with.
