About the Item

'High Street', from Richard Heeps series taking its title from Neil Young's song 'After the Gold Rush'. It captures former American Mining Towns he visited on his journey from Las Vegas to Bonneville. Stopping in Wendover, Utah, he created beautiful architectural photography where the buildings become striking geometric shapes against the Crayola blue skies. All of Richard's works have a soundtrack which influence the artworks and are a great way to understand his artist mindset. This shed is part of the historic East Ely Railway Yards, it was a vital part of mining communication and was used as a Stagecoach Station along the Pony Express route. This artwork is a limited edition of 25, gloss photographic print, dry-mounted to aluminium, presented in a museum board white window mount and a choice of black or white box frame frame fitted with anti-reflective uv70% glass. It is signed and numbered on reverse and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. This artwork can be purchased in bespoke sizes, just get in touch. Be sure to look at his other artworks listed on 1stDibs as they are great paired for interior design projects. Richard Heeps’ seductive, highly saturated colours and sophisticated pictorial structures demonstrate a true love and empathy for his subject matter – be it cool, descriptive interiors, still life, portrait or landscape. His distinctive style pushes the limits of lens-based photography without the need for digital manipulation. He runs his own darkrooms in Cambridge (UK) where he hand prints his colour photography. His work has been exhibited in Museums and Public Galleries around England and he has participated in Art Fairs around the world and his work is now part of many international collections.
