Description from the seller
David Law
Photographic Artist – Creator of Contemporary Images
A multidisciplinary photographic artist, author, and musician, David Law develops work centered on the gaze, presence, and the perception of images in urban spaces. He first came to prominence with a series devoted to shop-window mannequins, integrated into the city through a subtle play of reflections and overlays. This exploration of the gaze and presence gave rise to an art book published in 2021. Later, struck by the distinctive aesthetic of collectible dolls and Japanese figurines, he extended this exploration by staging them in the streets of Paris and other European capitals. Through framing, lighting, and composition, these inanimate subjects acquire an uncanny, almost lifelike presence, prompting questions about our relationship with illusion and projection.
New Series – Walls of legends
This series pays tribute to iconic figures who have left their mark on history, music, cinema, and popular culture. Each portrait, pared down to the essentials, captures an instantly recognizable identity in just a few powerful contrasts. Created using contemporary digital tools and then rendered in a stencil aesthetic, the works belong to the street art tradition, balancing spontaneity with a mastery of gesture. The deep black tones and raw surfaces evoke direct intervention on the wall, while imperfections and textures reinforce their urban character. At the crossroads of collective memory and visual expression, this series offers a timeless perspective on the icons that continue to inhabit our imagination.
Edition & Production
Each work is available 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 produced on aluminum with an integrated rear hanging system. Printed on bright white vinyl, mounted between two aluminum panels, with flexible anti-UV and moisture-resistant lamination, ensuring excellent durability, long-lasting resistance, color stability, and a modern, contemporary finish.
Career
Since 2014, David Law has taken part in around twenty contemporary art fairs a year in France and across Europe. He is also the official photographer and videographer for several contemporary art fair organizers. Alongside his visual practice, he pursues his work as an author and musician, which includes 3 novels, a short story collection, a graphic novel, a photo book, and 5 self-produced CDs. A singer and guitarist, he currently performs with the band FRENZY.
