About the Item

Fountain Head, 2019 Fine Art Print on Baryta paper mounted on dibond, framed 100 x 65 x 0.3 cm Framed: 101 x 66 x 4 cm Edition 2 on 5 Loreal Prystaj is an American visual artist based in London and New York. Her work revolves around the phenomenology of consciousness, lived experience, and the surreal. Grounded in disrupting the "conventional" environment to reveal its psychological impact on the individual or collective, she uses photography, moving-image, sculpture, and installation to construct a mise-en-scene highlighting the relationship between the environment and its effect on one's subconscious through storytelling and symbolism. Her work often exposes the relationship between time and space, with a juxtaposition of the human form and it’s environment. She expresses ideas through using photography as her base medium and expands ideas through video, installation, performance, and interactive pieces. Often nature is implemented in her work, and she uses symbolism in order to find the animate in the inanimate and to break the animate down to its essential components. Prystaj saw her first solo show take place in New York’s Lower East Side, exhibiting venue Gallery Sensei, introducing her renowned series, Being (February, 2015). Since then, she continues to exhibit in New York, along with showing bodies of work internationally, such as Japan, France, Italy, China, Finland, and throughout the States. This Fall 2017, she will be attending the Royal College of Art in London to receive her MA in photography.

Framed: 68 x 93 x 3 cm Other editions in 3 sizes, 3-2-1 + AP To get a fresh look at natures beauty in a modern era, Zak van Biljon went beyond the visible spectrum to capture these vivid images. The technique, developed for military surveillance and crop surveys, captures near-infrared light: wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation that fall between what we see as red and the longer wavelengths used for thermal imaging. The pigment in plant leaves, chlorophyll, strongly absorbs visible light which they use as a source of energy in the process of photosynthesis. The cell structure of the leaves, on the other hand, strongly reflects near-infrared light. A strong absorption at these wavelengths would only result in overheating the plant and possibly damaging the tissues. The human eye is unable to perceive infrared light but it is exactly this reflected energy, which reacts with infrared-sensitive material to create electric pinks and vibrant reds. The idea of landscapes is not landscape by itself. Nothing exists by itself but only through perception. Our perception, however, is subject to both individual watching and classifying what we see. The classification is strongly subdued to the imagery with which we are confronted every day. The famous Windows computer desktop image “Bliss” and others of this kind have become a kind of nature of which we believe that is is “true” nature. Pictures of natures are not about falsifying nature itself but are reflecting our perception of nature. What kind of image do we have? On social media channels user are sharing zillions of filtered photos of nature...
