Jill Enfield (born August 8, 1954, in Miami Beach, Florida)[1] is a photographer and hand coloring artist best known for her work in alternative photographic processes such as Cyanotype and Collodion process. She has taught at The New School (Parsons Division),[2] ICP, and New York University.

The New Americans

One of Enfield's best known projects is The New Americans, a portrait series of contemporary immigrants made using the wet plate collodion process. The project culminated in a 2017 solo exhibition at the Ellis Island National Museum of Immigration that occupied six galleries from May through September 2017.[3] The exhibition included Glasshouse of New Americans, an installation comprising approximately 45 antique windows, each bearing a wet collodion portrait of a contemporary immigrant, assembled into the form of a house. The work references the historical use of collodion photography to document immigrants arriving at Ellis Island in the 19th century.[3][4] The installation subsequently traveled to other venues including Photoville in Brooklyn.[4]
