Description from the seller
New Series – Presence
David Law
Photographic Artist – Creator of contemporary images
As a multidisciplinary photographic artist, author and musician, David Law develops work focused on gaze, presence, and the perception of the image in the urban space. He first gained recognition with a series devoted to window mannequins, integrated into the city through a subtle game of reflections and superpositions. This research on gaze and presence gave rise to an art book published in 2021. Later intrigued by the singular 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 relation to illusion and projection.
New Series – Presence
Presence explores the female silhouette as a form in tension between light and darkness. Fragmented by shadows, crossed by luminous lines and sometimes almost absorbed by its environment, she becomes a presence more suggested than represented. A graphic exploration of the body, light, and what remains invisible.
Edition & Production
Each work is offered in a limited edition of 8 numbered copies plus 4 artist proofs (A.P.), signed by the artist and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The prints are produced on aluminum with an integrated rear mounting. Printed on luminous white vinyl, mounted between two aluminum plates, with a soft UV- and humidity-resistant laminate, ensuring excellent durability, long-term stability of colors, and a modern, contemporary rendering.
Background
Since 2014, David Law has participated in about twenty Contemporary Art fairs per year in France and Europe. He is also the dedicated photographer and videographer for several organizers of contemporary art fairs. Parallel to his visual activity, he develops a writer-artist-musician career including 3 novels, a collection of short stories, a graphic novel, a photo book, and 5 self-produced CDs. A singer-guitarist, he currently performs with the band FRENZY.
