About the Item

Sonny and Clyde, limited edition, archival pigment ink photograph, signed and numbered Julie Blackmon is a contemporary American photographer. Drawing from her own family life, Blackmon stages images set in familiar environments—like a backyard barbecue or grocery store—in which multiple competing narratives take place at once. Both humorous and serene, her scenes often focus on children and families that are imbued with pathos and a fascination with the everyday. “I’ve lived in Springfield, Missouri, my whole life, in the same neighborhood, surrounded by my five sisters,” she has explained. “I’m inspired by everyday things—like this FedEx truck delivering a chair. I like to exaggerate what I see and experience, though, like writers and filmmakers do. There’s a point when it becomes fiction, but what should come through is the stress, chaos, darkness and charm of everyday life.” The artist notably draws also inspiration from the raucous tavern scenes of 17th-century Dutch painters, like Jan Steen, in creating her lively tableaus. Born in 1966 in Springfield, MO, Blackmon enrolled at Missouri State University where she studied the work of Sally Mann and Diane Arbus. She would leave college before finishing her degree and resumed photographing years later when she was a mother of three and took up her domestic experience as a focus for her early work. Today, Blackmon’s works are in the collections of the George Eastman House in Rochester, the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art in Kansas City, the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, and the Portland Art Museum, among others. She continues to live and work in Springfield, MO.

By Christopher Petsos
Located in New York, NY
This image captured in 2017 by New York photographer Christopher Petsos features the Sarakiniko beach in Milos, Greece, one of the most beautiful “moonscape” beaches in the world. This beach is known for being the most photographed attraction in the Aegean Sea. Due to its picturesque beauty, it's become an Instagram darling. Christopher Petsos is a New York City based photographer and artist. He is known for capturing Light, pattern, texture, color and motion across the urban realm. Petsos believes that we see things through a filter of the self, a camera records the physical details of a scene, but our human eyes and sub-conscious self, are the interpreters that complete our view of reality. In his own words: “Throughout the process, I stay faithful to the underlying truth of the scene. My work inhabits the space between literal depiction and my emotional Impression of the moment. The result is hyper-reality: facts imbued with feeling.” In this image, Christopher Petsos stands true to his words and brilliantly captures the light, pattern, texture, color and motion across the urban realm and painted it in his own colors to give the viewer a new perspective. Limited Numbered Edition of this iconic print on fine art archival pigment paper and signed by Christopher Petsos are available in the sizes below. We ship world-wide and shipping is free.
