About the Item

Color photography, two women with flowers, pink, floral. I live in the Uncanny Valley. In this place there is drama, tension, humor, contradiction, sensuality, tragedy, beauty, ambiguity, love, and God. My house here, in this valley, is built on quicksand, with walls dressed in thoughts painted by my unfiltered emotions. My game is mystery, fusing color, light, and archetypes. And I deal in transcendence and release: of the banal, of personal prejudice, of precedent–to experience and embrace something new, something….extraordinary. Edward L. Rubin is an award-winning fine art photographer, a film and television production designer, and a fine art painter. He lives in his hometown of Los Angeles, studied architecture at the University of California, Berkeley, and holds a Master of Fine Arts degree in Set Design for theatre from Carnegie-Mellon University. He also attended the Academie de Port Royal in Paris, France, where he studied drawing and painting.

His photographs have been exhibited in over eighty international competitions including the 3RD INTERNATIONAL BIENNIAL OF PHOTOGRAPHY in Malaga, Spain, and the 5TH INTERNATIONAL BIENNIAL OF PHOTOGRAPHY in Barcelona. He has won First Place in multiple categories in the INTERNATIONAL POLLUX AWARDS many times.
