Third Person

Doug Hanson & Rachel Elizabeth Maley

Photographer Doug Hanson presents images addressing the interaction of subject and viewer with the collaboration of visual and performing artist Rachel Elizabeth Maley. The original tintype pieces and prints, produced with the 1850’s wet plate photographic process, alter the viewer’s expectation for the portrayal.


Doug Hanson, a photographer based outside of Chicago, specializes in antiquarian techniques.  Along with his original photography work, he also conducts workshops in wet plate and other photographic media. 
Rachel Elizabeth Maley, a visual and performing artist based in Elgin, IL, is the current Artist in Residence at Side Street Studio Arts.  In January of 2015, she held her first solo exhibition, The Goldberg Variations, which included performances of J.S. Bach's masterwork for piano in conjunction with an exhibition of original visual art inspired by the music.  Learn more at RE-MALEY.com.
