Walk into a Kinko’s to use a copier…but make it art? That’s exactly how this month’s artist, Pati Hill, got her start—through xeroxing everyday household objects.
What started as the role of family historian, turned into framed pieces on gallery walls. Why objects? Why a photocopier? And what makes something appeal beyond the reach of our own homes?
Listen in today as Amy and Chris talk about using unconventional tools, finding creativity in the constraints, whether photocopies make for good art, and if objects might actually have a life of their own.
Amy Elizabeth is an artist and film photographer living in Minneapolis, MN. She runs the group The Art Lab for creatives who want to connect and push forward in their artistry. She is also the owner/operator of Film Lab 135, a bespoke lab dedicated to processing experimental film, specializing in film soup. You can find her on Instagram, substack, and bluesky @itsamyliz.

It’s hard to put your money where your mouth is. This month, after some really terrible film images, Amy remembered she’s “not a film snob”. And this is the story of how iPhone and digital images landed on her permanent Instagram feed.
But if you want to hear some more details of said story, listen about evaluating the proper tools the job, and learn how to stop overcomplicating and get out of your own darn way, then tune into this episode of Post-Processing.
