Rankin
An exploding world II - Burning Dandelion, Fine Art Photography

About the Item

Dandelion burning photographed by Rankin. 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. An Exploding World II" is a striking photograph by British photographer Rankin, part of his evocative series created during the COVID-19 lockdown. Known for his celebrity portraits and fashion photography, Rankin turned his lens toward nature, specifically dandelions, to explore themes of destruction and renewal. By setting these delicate seed heads ablaze, he crafted images that evoke apocalyptic scenes reminiscent of nuclear explosions or comets, serving as metaphors for personal and collective transformation during isolation. Raw, unfiltered, and with an edge – pinpointing Rankin’s elusive yet iconic visual language is almost impossible. The star photographer has captured the Who’s Who throughout his skyrocketing career and created some of the most well-known shots of timeless figures, such as Kate Moss, Björn or David Bowie. Rankin’s work is marked by a coarse intimacy that strips superstars of their allures and stardom and foregrounds them as people. Co-founder and creator of the lifestyle and art magazine Dazed & Confused and collaborator of some of the most high-priced artists of our time, such as Damien Hirst, Rankin is an absolute pillar of the British art scene.
