Nude in Sheep – Wiltshire, 1975
Photographer: Michael Joseph
Original photograph: Wiltshire, England, 1975
Medium: Photographic print on aluminium
Presentation: Bespoke ornate black frame
From the Michael Joseph Archive
At first glance, there are simply sheep — hundreds of them, packed so densely that they become an extraordinary landscape of wool, light and texture. Then the eye finds her.
Standing almost perfectly camouflaged amongst the flock, a lone nude figure appears in the centre of the composition, her body echoing the pale tones and organic forms surrounding her.
Nude in Sheep is one of Michael Joseph’s wonderfully surreal large-scale compositions: audacious, beautifully orchestrated and possessing the visual wit that characterised so much of his advertising photography.
For this new-generation interpretation from the archive, the photograph has been printed on aluminium, giving the image an extraordinary additional dimension. The metallic surface responds constantly to its surroundings: as you move around the piece, the light travels across the flock, illuminating different sheep, picking out textures and causing areas of the photograph to emerge and recede.
In certain light the aluminium itself seems almost to become part of the wool. The pale highlights shimmer against the darker passages, while the solitary figure can appear immediately obvious from one angle and almost disappear back into the flock from another.
It is an effect that still photography simply cannot fully reproduce — the artwork changes as the viewer moves around it and as the light in the room changes throughout the day.
The elaborate deep-black frame provides a dramatic counterpoint to the warm metallic tones, turning an already remarkable photograph into a substantial statement piece.
Half pastoral scene, half visual puzzle, Nude in Sheep is an image that invites you to look once, look again — and then keep looking.
