Firmly entrenched in his traditional darkroom practices, Uelsmann continues to produce magical and thought-provoking imagery without the help of modern computer-base techniques.  Uelsmann says, “There’s an element of alchemy that I sense in the darkroom that I would never ever sense in front of a computer. There’s a technological well that is behind the screen that is beyond any comprehension for me.  It’s not particularly mystical – it’s just technical.  In the darkroom it feels much more spiritual.”

Uelsmann’s works are featured in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the International Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House, the Victoria an Albert Museum in London, the Bibliotheque National in Paris, the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo, and the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, among many others.
