A 1990s cross-processed photo of a young artist on a ladder in a loft, wiring a glowing blue tinsel halo above a tulle-draped mannequin.

In a cluttered 1990s artist's loft, a costume maker balances on a paint-spattered stepladder to wire a halo of aluminum foil and blue Christmas bulbs above a mannequin torso. Shot on expired Agfa CT Precisa slide film cross-processed in C-41 chemistry, the wide-angle snapshot exhibits electric cyan highlights, crushed muddy shadows, and coarse grain from a two-stop push.
