Description from the seller
New series – Lost souls
David Law
Photographer-Artist – Creator of contemporary imagery
Multi-disciplinary photographer-artist, author and musician, David Law develops work focused on gaze, presence and the perception of image in urban space. He first became known for a series devoted to storefront mannequins, integrated into the city through a subtle play of reflections and superimpositions. This exploration of gaze and presence gave rise to an art book published in 2021. Subsequently intrigued by the distinctive aesthetics of collectible dolls and Japanese figurines, he extends this reflection by staging them in the streets of Paris and other European capitals. Through framing, light and composition, these inanimate models acquire a troubling, almost living presence, challenging our relationship to illusion and projection.
New series – Lost Souls
With this series, David Law dives into austere and dark universes, inhabited by suspended ghostly silhouettes. These indistinct, almost erased presences wander through strange landscapes where emptiness becomes matter. Through a visual language built with the help of contemporary graphic tools, the artist explores the notion of isolation, trace and memory. A silent journey, on the borders of the visible and the invisible.
Edition & Production
Each artwork is offered in a limited edition of 8 numbered copies + 4 artist’s proofs (A.P.), signed by the artist and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The prints are made on aluminum with an integrated rear mounting. Printed on luminous white vinyl, adhered between two aluminum panels, with soft UV- and moisture-resistant lamination, guaranteeing excellent durability, great long-term resistance, color stability and a modern, contemporary look.
Profile
Since 2014, David Law has participated in about twenty contemporary art fairs per year in France and Europe. He is also the official photographer and videographer for several organizers of contemporary art fairs. Parallel to his visual activity, he develops authorial work and music, including 3 novels, a collection of short stories, a comic book, a photo book and 5 self-produced CDs. A singer-guitarist, he currently performs with the band FRENZY.
