Great to hear from you! Well timed - I'm getting more into photography (still n00b) so interested to hear more about your rediscovery.

I've done similar myself a couple of times: "improving" does not necessarily mean "lengthening"...but I conflate the two and then create more work 😝

When I first read about Biernoff, I enjoyed the (original research!) connection to another artist I've written about recently.

Her and Dan Hays both reproduce the "flaws" of images originally created with more technologically recent means than painting.

Another John Moores Prize winner on Wikipedia's main page today: "Did you know that artist Dan Hays uses what he calls 'the tactile, flawed and time-consuming medium of painting' to reproduce the effect of a low-resolution JPEG?"

Was excited to see someone found and added an appropriately licensed image that I'd missed within hours of it being featured ❤️

Not a John Moores Prize winner, but I did see his exhibition at the Bluecoat last year, so still a tangential Liverpool connection ;)

Had a Baader Meinhoff lemon pig moment today. Saw one in a café, having only just heard about them from your article.
