When you have finished manipulation? Do you ever finish manipulation when is the piece finished? When is it Art?

bw-8-LithoTransferSevenMonths

Manipulation isn’t new this image is a study of a pregnant women. Shot on 35mm film at ISO 1600 to gain more grain and texture. It was then printed onto a sheet of 4×5 film giving me a positive image, then contact printed on to a 4×5 sheet of litho film [high contrast film used in the printing industry]this film sees just Black and White and adds more texture and grain. Many steps that I decided on while shooting the original negative in very contrasty studio light. When did it become Photographic Art?

What are your thoughts? When Does an image become Art? peace pjc
