Description from the seller
Crypto Movie Series - Recreating a photo using photos of the artist depicted.
Photographer Artist – Contemporary Image Creator
Multidisciplinary photographer, writer and musician, David Law develops work centered on the gaze, presence and 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 interplay of reflections and layering This exploration of the gaze and presence gave rise to an art book published in 2021. Later drawn to the distinctive aesthetic of collectible dolls and Japanese figurines, he extends this exploration by staging them in the streets of Paris and other European capitals. Through framing, light and composition, these inanimate models acquire a disconcerting, almost lifelike presence, prompting us to question our relationship with illusion and projection.
The Cryptos series offers a contemporary reinterpretation of cultural icons through an immersive, vibrant pop art aesthetic. Each work is built as a mosaic composed of thousands of photos of the artist. From a distance, the image reveals a recognizable figure, while up close, it unveils a wealth of visual detail. Each fragment acts as a “wave,” evoking the artistic world of the subject depicted. The creative process is lengthy and demanding, requiring precision and mastery of graphic tools. Considerable work goes into the colors, lighting and overall harmony of the image. Everything is created originally and independently.
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. Prints are produced on aluminum with an integrated rear hanging system. Printed on luminous white vinyl, mounted between two aluminum sheets, with flexible 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 each year in France and Europe. He is also the official photographer and videographer for several contemporary art fair organizers. Alongside his visual work, he pursues a career as a writer and musician, with 3 novels, a short story collection, a graphic novel, a photo book and 5 self-produced CDs to his name. A singer and guitarist, he currently performs with the band FRENZY.
