About the Item

Table Light by photographer Marcus Tomlinson was photographed in 2000 and developed into a C-type limited edition print in 2019. Featuring a table / skirt by fashion designer Hussein Chalayan from his Afterwords Collection, Tomlinson was experimenting with double exposure techniques, playing with the natural elements of wood and fire, and ideas of opposing forces juxtaposing. Background: Marcus Tomlinson creates visionary photographs and films that uniquely combine art and fashion sensibilities. His work experiments with both still and moving imagery, often exploiting the creative tensions between the two. His intensely crafted, highly stylized, studio-based imagery has won him international acclaim in galleries and museums internationally. In the 1990s, Tomlinson produced photographs for iconic Face, and i-D magazines and fashion designer Koji Tatsuno. Years before Photoshop, his photographs used experimental techniques such as multiple exposure and hand-masking. He experimented with the boundaries between still and moving imagery, creating photographic sequences of ‘stills’; and occasionally producing flip books in the style of early film experiments. In the late 1990s Tomlinson was commissioned by Philip Treacy to create a photographic series of the designer’s hats for the fashion magazine Visionaire, which became defining for both the photographer and the milliner. Subsequently he worked with fashion designers Hussein Chalayan, Issey Miyake and Gareth Pugh on photographs and films for museum exhibitions.
