David Law - Magic Clouds - The Whale II

Series: Magic Clouds David Law Photographer Artist – Creator of contemporary images Multidisciplinary photographer artist, author and musician, David Law develops work centered on gaze, presence and perception of the image in urban space. He first made a name for himself with a series devoted to storefront dummies, integrated into the city through a subtle play of reflections and superpositions. This exploration of gaze and presence gave birth to an art book published in 2021. Later drawn to 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, questioning our relationship to illusion and projection. New series – Magic Clouds Magic Clouds is an invitation to rediscover that childhood game of looking at the sky and recognizing, in the clouds, animals or imaginary creatures. Each image is constructed from a photograph of sky and clouds, whose natural shapes gradually suggest a presence. The artist intervenes with a minimalist touch: a few small black dots placed at the position of the eyes are enough to give rise to a gaze and reveal the animal. A series where chance, imagination and poetry meet.
