In 1999 I got a Polaroid i-Zone camera shaped like Tweety-bird.
It was my birthday, and I fell in love with the matchbox-size over-saturated photos. I even got my best friend to save up and buy a similar camera, just so we could share photos in schoolyard.
But film was way more than what I got every satuday for a weekend treat, and soon the camera started to collect dust.
Ten years later, a great friend of mine gave me a carboard box filled with dead-stock Polaroid. Not only a Polaroid “Image” camera, but a great pile of soon-to-expire film. I was in heaven.
So began my love for instant photography.
Through the downfall of the original Polaroid company, the rise of “Impossible Project”, and now back to its original name, the format has had quite the journey.
This photo is taken in 2015, with the second generation of “Impossible Project” B&W – film.
