Here, his prowess of technological innovation reinterpreted as Space Station Vuitton.... "on dark side of the moon".
IMMORTELLE
Strikingly contemporary as they are expressive, the poetic yet powerful sensibility of these images that the artist compares to the writings of "Lost Love Letters" are charged with their own individual emotion and where once again, the distinction of color and depth of field play a vital factor.
