Rollin LeonardAlyssa - In Celebration of Pride Month2015
2015
About the Item
Stone and Press Gallery is excited to offer several works in celebration of the LGBTQ community.
Aliyssa first looks like a color abstract. Then very slowly you realize it is an extreme close up of a young woman's face. Only slowly do the water droplets appear with each droplet containing bits and pieces of the woman's face and torso. This image was included as part of the Leonard Exhibition at the Coastal Maine Contemporary Art Museum in 2016. The work is from a series of droplet portraits created of the artist and some of his friends.
Rollin Leonard has spent more than 10 years of exploration on the human body, and more than 3,000 human subjects captured in every imaginable way. His work revolves around developing new photographic techniques and producing semi-sculptural works on paper, plastic, and in video. For the last four years most photographs he's taken have been through a drop of water. He's pushing the limits of water as an optical tool using laser cut plastics, etched glass, hydrophobic materials, oils, liquid vinyl, resin, humidifiers, spray bottles, and syringes. The images and video are supposed to look "fake" or reference computer generated effects but are essentially unaltered out of the camera. The fake-looking effects are physical and real putting him in a category of "real fake." Some would categorize him as part of Simulism (the world view that sees the universe as a simulation) despite not sharing his counterparts' computer generated processes. His work has been exhibited at The Photographer’s Gallery in London, Museum of the Moving Image NYC, Bitforms Gallery NYC, Transfer Gallery NYC, Postmasters Gallery in NYC, Haus der elektronischen Künste Basel, Carnegie Museum of Art, SFMoMA, Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, and the Whitney Museum in NYC.

Black and White (School children in Gambia, West Africa)
By Benno Thoma
Located in New Orleans, LA
This black and white image is of an excited group of school children in Gambia, West Africa This impression is #1 of an edition of 10. It is printed on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Ultra Smooth paper that meets the highest industry standards regarding density, color gamut, color graduation and image sharpness. This white 100% rag paper guarantees archival standards.
Benno Thoma was born in the university city of Maastricht on the southern tip of the Netherlands in November, 1956. He strives to stimulate our senses in his photographs and to move his audience to touch, feel and experience his vision.
Thoma's photographs show us the beauty in each aspect of the composition. There is a tactile feel to his material, a positive energy that comes from the light that gives nuance to the subtle colors created. Arranged together with the beauty and dignity of the human body his technique invites us to become one with the scene. He travels around the world to create his images and strives to bathe his subjects in the natural light of that locale. Above all he captures the sense of place, its uniqueness -- cultural, natural or architectural. His newest photographs manipulate the element of water and light to express his vision of the male body – in both its innocence and vulnerability. Thoma uses movement and composition to capture the beauty of the body.
The German publishing house of Bruno Gmunder has published five monographs of the work of Thoma. His photographs chronicle the luxurious properties of the Kempinski Hotel Group, the beautiful young actors of Bel Ami...

This print may also be available in a larger size. Please contact the gallery for more information.
Giles Revell creates imagery that is driven by analytical and forensic ideas that question the boundaries of science and art. There is a distilled graphic style to his work which has a recurring curiosity for observing familiar themes with an alternative viewpoint. He is a master of lighting but also inspired by the potential of using new technologies to reveal innovative ways of expressing ideas.
