SQRA (Cedric Sequerra)
Artist Bookscape I - Mounted on Plexi

About the Item

Piece composed of art books that the artist arranges and then photographs. Face mounted on plexiglass. Canadian artist Cedric travels the globe to photograph unique collections to turn into magnificent large format pieces of art; his process involves meeting real collectors with rare or eclectic collections that can be captured in-camera to create "pop culture time-capsules". Being a collector himself, Cedric understands the lifelong pursuit of the most elusive items and the passion held by the collector community, though sadly these collections rarely garner the adoration they deserve because they typically sit locked away in boxes, attics, basements or garages. Rather than being witnessed by a select few who have the privilege to see these trophies in person, Cedric puts in the research and effort to capture the magic of the collector's journey for the masses to appreciate. Whether it's books, movies, toys, food or sports memorabilia, every collection tells a story. ABOUT HIS PAST: When Cedric first picked up his video camera in 2007, his debut short film and music video were viral hits, garnering 6.5 million organic views on YouTube; today, he has amassed more than 50 million views on videos he’s produced. Before adopting his career full time, Cedric completed his BComm in finance at John Molson School of Business in 2010. In the years that followed, Cedric had the privilege of shooting with many prolific companies, artists, recording artists, etc , including Ubisoft, Major Lazer, Deadmau5, Sushi Master Nobu Matsuhisa, YouTube sensation Epic Meal Time & music industry maverick Steve Rennie to name a few. Cedric also spent considerable time working in the fashion industry, having shot videos with Coco Rocha, Jeremy Scott, Corey Shapiro and music videos with the late tattooed model Zombie Boy. As a photographer, Cedric has shot catalogues for many brands such as Kappa, Naked & Famous Denim and renowned Quebec designer Denis Gagnon.

Coming Back - underwater photograph - archival pigment print 23x17"
By Alex Sher
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
"Coming Back" captures a transformative moment in contemporary underwater fine art photography, where classical composition meets avant-garde expression. A figure in crimson emerges through a veil of ascending bubbles, creating a dynamic interplay between motion and stillness. The deep cerulean backdrop contrasts dramatically with the red fabric, while suspended air bubbles catch light like countless stars, evoking a celestial aesthetic. This fine art photograph explores themes of emergence and rebirth, characteristic of modern submersible portraiture. The technical mastery of underwater lighting and movement choreography elevates this piece to a meditation on human resilience and ascension. This photograph is a part of the series "Blue Fall...

Pointe - underwater photograph - archival pigment print 24x17"
By Alex Sher
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
This elegant underwater photograph captures a ballet dancer in pointe shoes and flowing white tutu, suspended in deep teal waters. The rich contrast between the pristine white costume and the moody blue-green aquatic environment creates a dreamlike atmosphere. Sher's composition bridges classical dance and contemporary underwater photography, exploring themes of grace transcending physical boundaries. The work continues the tradition of fine art photography that documents performance art in unexpected contexts, transforming the familiar ballet pose into a surreal meditation on weightlessness and artistic expression beneath the surface. "Four years ago I wrecked my sailboat and was selfmedicating with vodka at a Russian restaurant when I suddenly noticed a cute girl hanging from the ceiling right above my glass. She was not only beautiful, she was a dancer too, and she agreed to model for me underwater. Two days later, if you stopped by my pool you’d see a fully dressed ballerina with her hands underwater and me wriggling at the bottom around her dance e shoes. I kept asking her to tie and untie her pointe hypnotized by the small hands entwined in ribbons and light. I took quite a few pictures that day. This one is my favorite."
