About the Item

Cones is a painting of light 'unseen.' When light travels, the human eye doesn't see its trails, but the camera does. My usual version of light painting involves leaving the light source still while manipulating the camera and various camera settings simultaneously. But in this case, I set the camera on a long exposure and manipulated the lights to obtain the cone pattern. This image is printed onto high-gloss brushed aluminum using dye sublimation. Due to the transparency of the inks, ambient light in the room will reflect off the aluminum through the inks giving the impression the picture is backlit. The image is printed to the edge of the thin sheet of aluminum and is backed by an aluminum frame set a few inches from the edge. The finish is water and scratch-proof and can be cleaned with a microfiber cloth. British-born Christopher is a lifelong photographer but spent many years working with composers in the Hollywood film industry before deciding to follow a new path. Perfecting his concept of PhotoLuminism imagery that he printed onto large sheets of aluminum, he forged his way into the professional photography market. This new technique attracted the attention of international art consultants, collectors, and galleries in the Philadephia area. His work has won many awards and hangs in prestigious private and public collections, including the Hyatt Regency Chicago, the Marriott Marquis Houston, the Dubai Conrad Hilton, and the Northeast Illinois University.
