Description
Quantum Light by David Benjamin Sherry uses photography, historically the medium used to explicate reality, as a departure from the known or accepted.
The images reference the traditional photographic hierarchies of landscape and portraiture, yet they rely on a subversion of the expected, creating pictures of interior landscape via a sublimated view of one's place within the natural world. Colour is key to his vision, used as a vehicle to heighten the photographs' emotive qualities, and as a conduit to more freely interpretive modes of perception.
Quantum Light is the artist's second book and explores his most recent works incorporating landscapes, collage, still life, portraiture, and sculpture.
The introduction to the book is a written conversation between the artist and Collier Schorr, and the designer of the book is Tiffany Malakooti.
This book coincides with the artist's first solo show at Salon 94 in New York.
