Hairnomicon: Communiqués from Beyond the Chair is a photographic series and book that reimagines early spirit photography through humor and horror. Set in New Orleans, it draws inspiration from eighteenth- and nineteenth-century manipulated ghost images and occult cinema, framing a séance disrupted by an unintended presence.
