ABOUT THE SUMO CONTACT SHEETS

ABOUT THE SUMO CONTACT SHEETS

Pulled from MISTER LYNCH’s acclaimed NOISEMAKERS series, SUMO CONTACT SHEETS are large-scale, one-of-a-kind artworks that offer an unfiltered look inside the rhythm of a shoot. Each oversized piece is built from original 35mm negatives, revealing raw moments, in-between frames, and the real energy that defined the session.

These works go beyond a single iconic image—they celebrate movement, mood, and the electric rapport between subject and photographer. Hand-marked with original darkroom editing notes, every SUMO CONTACT is a tactile artifact of Lynch’s analog process and storytelling approach.

Part of the ARCHIVE ORIGINALS collection, this series is a living document of groundbreaking musicians and cultural icons. Current artists include:
Black 47, Blues Traveler, David Bowie, El Vez, Glen Hansard, Imani Coppola, R.E.M., The Go-Go’s, The Grateful Dead, Wheatus, Ziggy Marley

Media: 35mm B&W Film + Color Chromes
Edition: One of a kind. Hand-marked by MISTER LYNCH. Collector selects available by request.
