Joel Moens de Hase
Freedom - A Photo Mosaic by Joel Moens - Edition

About the Item

Artist: Joël Moens Title: Freedom Edition: 1 of 8 Dimensions: 39.3 x 39.3 in. x 1 / 99 x 99 cm Framed Dimensions: 40.5 x 40.5 x 2 - - About the artist: Joël Moens is a serial creator. Over the course of his lifetime, he has spawned over fifteen different businesses. Nowadays, and almost schizophrenically, he switches between his businessman’s hat and his artist’s hat at the mere click of a mouse, given that this disciple of the philosophy of action devotes his time to digital art. His artistic 'love at first sight' moment was his discovery of and introduction to photo mosaics. This is a process which renews the ancient technique of mosaic and is testament to the change in status of the image that resulted from the technological revolutions of the end of the twentieth century. The particular works of Joël Moens are made up of scores of feminine curves, that when assembled form a unified whole. The tiny photographic images lend a real sense of depth to the artist’s work, an idea of infinity. They can be read in two ways, depending on whether the viewer is looking at the content or the form. This reflects the ambivalence of his existence, where he alternates between his activities as a businessman and his work as an artist. The photo mosaics of Joël Moens de Hase first began to emerge in 2011. They rapidly caught the interest of a national and international viewership, and both were highly receptive. This digital art form, a contemporary alternative of pixel art and pointillism, has the ability to surprise and seduce through the originality and aesthetics of the concept. It is a testament to its age. It stems from a wide range of different sources but primarily from the liberation of a futuristic spirit, that of this Belgian artist born in 1959. A veritable homage to sensuality, a symphony of colors which unleashes the imagination and tantalizes the senses.

    Photography mounted on Diasec/Mixed Media Anne Valverde (b. 1968) is a Parisian photographer fascinated by urban spaces and the graphism of landscapes. She creates a dreamlike world through the use of her photographs featuring idyllic settings, furthering this effect with calligraphy and light. After digital processing, the high-resolution prints are exclusively developed on silver paper. According to Valverde, she designs her photos to be imaginative springboards: "windows with views." Since 2016, she has worked cross-country on the DREAM ART project with neon set-up in her photographs. Through the medium of neon, she revives the essence of the word "photograph," which translates to "writing with light" in Greek. Her literal interpretation transports the viewer into a realm of ethereal landscapes. Parisian photographer fascinated by urban spaces and the graphism of landscapes.

  • Along The Verde
    Located in Miami, FL
    Framed size: 65.75 in. x 54.5 in. x 2 in. Artist Journal Entry: "Things got a bit western just before this photo was taken. After riding up to an overlook above the East Verde River, just southwest of the town of Payson, AZ, we spotted this perch hanging above the cattle below. One of the cowboys looked over at me and said, "How about a photo of us with our horses up there?" Now I was thinking the same myself, but I wasn't about to ask these guys to risk themselves or their horses going over the edge in some freak accident. With excitement on my face, I replied, "Hell yeah, let's do it." After they got situated and ensured the horses were safe, I set myself up in the right position and started to line up the composition through my viewfinder. As I counted down from three, one of the horses lunged forward, completely disrupting the photo and the cowboys sitting on the edge of this cliff. They leaped up and immediately grabbed the reins and calmed the horses down. If that horse wanted to lunge any further, it would have taken itself and the cowboy up front off the edge nearly 100 feet down into the river. After repositioning and making sure everything was at peace, we captured this incredible and one-of-a-kind photos in central Arizona. You could say we all shared a few anxious laughs and smiles afterward." About The Artist: Beau Simmons...

  • Earth Remains #45
    Located in Sante Fe, NM
    This photograph is representative of two related series of mine that deal with humanity's impact on and relationship with the earth. This relationship is not sustainable. Lately, I have begun to dream of our tortured earth with the remains of our hubris drifting through space, mined to extinction. This work is an attempt to tear through the ugliness of the world we have made, through the blindness of our voracious appetite to the vastness beyond, where beauty cares not for our perception of it. As Robinson Jeffers wrote: “The beauty of things was born before eyes and sufficient to itself; the heartbreaking beauty/ Will remain when there is no heart to break for it.” -- William Lesch
