Koray Erkaya
Invacuo Project #25. B&W Portrait inspired by the Gezi Park resistance movement

2016

About the Item

In his new photographic art series, Erkaya revolts against individual and social de-sensitization. In order to address the memory and to increase awareness, he uses “gas” against everyone –without discrimination. He tests his models with gas in the specifically prepared labyrinth made of mirrors. When we see ourselves in the eyes of the models in the mirrors, then we’ll realize the great richness of the “Other.” Without further loss of time and lives, I hope. Erkaya's compositions are always framed by a mysterious and dreamlike message, which gives his images a stylized and elegant appearance. The portraits he presents are adorned with delicate grace and strength, contrasting the classic elegance of the female body with the photographer's contemporary art techniques. The viewer must confront themes of self-perception and the modern human condition through Erkayas' works, which are bold and evocative in their symbolism. His bold use of color or sharp black and white images creates a captivating exploration of identity, duality and perception in his images. Impose the viewer to reflect on the distinction between what he perceives and what he reflects. From Invacuo Project Series Hahnemühle Photo Matt Fibre Duo 210 Paper Edition of 10

Brenda Schad, NYC - nude model in Garden with Bunny, fine art photography, 2004
By Sante D´ Orazio
Located in Vienna, AT
All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. Kate Moss lounging cigarette in hand, Pamela Anderson captivating the camera hand in hair, or, in this case, the iconic Brenda Schad with a Bunny – star photographer Sante D'Orazio has an eye for sex appeal. Celebrating and cannibalizing his Italian-Catholic heritage, he reveres female beauty in all its evanescence. Zooming in on impulsive movements, fleeting glances, and coquettish poses, D'Orazio is a master of effortless composition. His photographs are an ode to excess and rock 'n' roll, turning celebrities into modern gods. PREISS FINE ARTS...
