SCARLETT HOOFT GRAAFLAND

In Photography on 16 mayo 2012 at 8:04

Dutch Scarlett Hooft Graafland graduated from the Royal Academy of Art in Hague in 1999. She then completed postgraduate studies in Belzalel, Jerusalem and a Master’s in sculpture at Parsons, New York. But, what really has caught the world’s eyes are not her sculptures but her photographs. Graafland is fascinated by remote, unusual and sometimes even inhospitable locations which she documents with her analogue camera. She then prints them straight from the negative and never uses Photoshop. Some places she has gone are Salar de Uyunu in the Bolivian Andes, the largest salt desert in the world and the Arctic plains of northern Canada where she travelled with the Inuit across the sea ice of Igloolik. She has also taken photographs of Southern China and the lava fields of Iceland.

TIM NAVIS

“I’m a pretty simple dude. I live in board shorts and get to shoot pretty people for a living. I don’t like complicated things but I don’t mind tedious things. A lot of people ask me how I process my photos and I’m not even quite sure. I just do stuff until the picture looks good. I have a “bad” habit of making everything creamy colored. It’s artsy sure and the vintage crowd loves it but – I love change.”
Photographer Tim Navis is a World citizen residing in Los Angeles, CA.

TROY PAIVA

In Photography on 5 abril 2012 at 7:46

Troy Paiva, aka Lost America, has been creating light painted night photography in abandoned locations and junkyards since 1989. His documentarian, yet surrealist–sometimes playful, sometimes haunting work examines the evolution and eventual abandonment of the communities, infrastructure and social iconography spawned during America’s 20th century expansion into the cities and deserts of the West–and the intensely exhilarating, yet strangely comforting act of sneaking around in the middle of the night, creating art from its ruins.

Yocky Zhang is a Shanghai-based photographer whose work often has him travelling between Beijing and Shanghai. His first job was as an advertising copywriter, but after six years he discovered his true means of expression with a real passion for photography. His first photo exhibition appeared at Shanghai River South Arts Center in April 2009 and after that his work began appearing in ‘Architectural Digest China’, ‘GQ China’, China’s ‘Vision Magazine’ and Chinese Marie Claire. Recent new clients include Adidas, Nike, Absolut and Wolksvagen and he has just completed two photo projects with New York-based journalist Maryann Keady for her book. In other words, this is a guy you’d want to keep a look out for!

RODNEY SMITH

In Photography on 28 marzo 2012 at 8:08

Introducing American photographer Rodney Smith might be overkill, but if you ask him he’d say something like this: “Rodney Smith is a modest man. He can wear an ascot without appearing pretentious. He proclaims himself to be a closet optimist. He believes Modernism took a wrong turn at a wrong time. He thinks Freud saved his life. And he graduated Yale. He lives in a wooded enclave in Snedings Landing, just close enough to Manhattan to meet an editor for lunch at a moment’s notice, but far enough away to mollify his disdain for city living. He loves books. And paper. And printed matter.”

BARRY UNDERWOOD

In Photography on 14 marzo 2012 at 8:53

American photographer Barry Underwood‘s surreal photographs have not only won him acclaim around the world but literally blown my mind. This is what he has to say about his work: “These images are documentations of full-scale installations that are built on-site in the landscape. Using illusion, imagination, and narrative, my photographs explore the potential of the ordinary. I approach my photographic work with a theatrical sensibility, much like a cinematographer or set designer would. By reading the landscape and altering the vista through lights and photographic effects, I transform everyday scenes into unique images. Light and color alter the perception of space, while defamiliarizing common objects. Space collapses, while the lights that I install appear as intrusions and interventions. This combination renders the forms in the landscape abstract. Inspired by cinema, land art, and contemporary painting, the resulting photographs are both surreal and familiar. They suggest a larger narrative, and yet that narrative remains elusive and mystifying.”
