I’ve always made pictures. My transitory adolescence from New England, to Southern California to England, and now back on the East Coast, developed in me an obsession with capturing the ephemeral. I began to make films that explored the temporal experience of evanescence, like a fleeting glance or a memory. Eventually I tried to stop […]

To a certain degree, my works are illustrations of the nightmarish and of the fanciful. I am not on the lookout for images to support an ostensive world of fantasy. Most of all, I am inspired by the everyday. This disposes me to a greater degree. It isn’t so much the extraordinary events but rather […]

I was born near Halloween, and according to some New Age book, on the “Day of Research.” Which is fitting considering as an artist I am constantly searching through books, stacks of images, text hunting and gathering. If I weren’t an artist, maybe I’d fancy forensics. My work is the result of combining all of […]

A year and a half ago I escaped city life to work on organic farms in California, Argentina, and Chile. I hiked 700 miles on the Pacific Crest Trail in Washington and Oregon. Living on the land, surrounded by big trees, mountains, and animals, with my feet on soil rather than cement, I developed a […]

My practice involves the formulation and performance of an artistic practice of life. The basis of this artistic practice of life is the individual subject. Approach in this manner, an artistic practice of life is intrinsically linked to ethics—how should the individual subject live? Of equal importance to ethics are the politics and political potentials […]

My work has taken various forms throughout the years, from early video installations using loops and repetition while still a student at the Royal College of Art in London to drawing and 3D installations more recently. The obvious recurrent theme is the use of absurd situations or uncanny scenes depicted to suggest a deep and […]

My work has a close relationship with the technology of a special makeup. It was in development for about ten years simultaneously with a studio at a university. The work of the special makeup is continued independently after that. The work of this special makeup begins from molding a human body, such as a player’s […]

My work is a marriage between current affairs and surreal fiction. The stories are often told in seemingly mundane, everyday backgrounds that suddenly come to life with the subject and the creative team all coming together to create something less ordinary. I have a very well established list of clients both editorially and commercially that […]

From the beginning of his artistic career, Paul Graham established himself as a photographer unwilling to stay within the confines of the traditional definitions of his medium. In a shimmer of possibility, Graham’s latest series of photographs partially on display at the Museum of Modern Art, he combines this spirit with a literary, almost poetic […]

For over 60 years, African-American photographer Gordon Parks traveled around the world with a camera in hand and a purpose in mind. He documented both the anonymous and the celebrity, capturing faces everywhere. His latest exhibition at the Gallery at Hermès witnesses the life and works of this adopted New Yorker. In 1951, in Paris, […]
