About the Item
"Corkscrew" is a classic example of my abstract PhotoLuminism technique. When light travels, the human eye cannot see its trails, but the camera can and does. Capturing images this way is quite complex and involves using a pre-arranged light source that remains still while the photographer changes settings on the camera and manipulates the camera itself during a relatively short, long exposure to obtain what's in his mind. Normally it requires minuscule movements and much rehearsal but in this instance a huge movement was necessary.
This image is printed onto a high-gloss brushed aluminum sheet using dye sublimation. Due to the transparency of the inks, ambient light in the room will reflect back through the inks to the eye, giving the impression the picture is lit from behind. Take my word for it, the rich gold lines look incredible in person.
The finish is water and scratch-resistant and can be cleaned with a microfiber cloth. Behind the sheet of aluminum is a black aluminum float-frame is mounted several inches from the edge of the print. The picture is ready to hang.
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.

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, where his work has been exhibited extensively. Kennedy has won many awards, and his work hangs in prestigious public and private collections, including the Hyatt Regency Chicago, the Marriott Marquis Houston, the Dubai Conrad Hilton, and Northeastern Illinois University. In addition to being a photographer, Christopher has translated three of his PhotoLuminism works into a 3-D sculpture in New Hope, PA. His 9' high, three-piece opaque fiberglass "Exhibitionist" was a winner of the Hew Hope Arts Outdoor Sculpture contest. Based on his photographs utilizing LEDs as the subject, "Exhibitionist" is internally lit by almost 2000 animated LEDs. A fraction of his extensive work can be reviewed at www.PhotoLuminism.com
