The reason I choose to have a look at Angela Strassheim is because she uses blood stain techniques to get an interesting photo. She splices together aspects of criminology and photography into a rather eerie but often very visual photo. She would take photos of places of struggle long after that initial struggle but uses a solution called "blue star" is capable of activating the physical memory of blood though its contact with remaining proteins on the wall, as seen as above with the white on the wall indicating blood.
Here we see that there have been multiple areas of impact leaving behind a blood area. This tells us that there had been multiple hits to the victim causing the blood splat areas. |
Here we see that the victim has dragged their bloody hand across a column in the room. The door is also open which indicates that they manged to escape. |
To summarise Angela Strassheim uses a chemical which makes blood or bodily fluids re-apprear and then proceeds to take photos of the results in black and white. She would return to crime scenes long after the murder to do this so she could get her desired photos.
