Artwork description:

A classic American icon, the roadside giant captured in the Salton Sea, California. Part of a series of pictures by Richard Heeps featuring the torso and head in the setting of the palm trees and desert dust and sun.

This artwork is a limited edition of 25, gloss photographic print from negative, accompanied by a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity.

Richard Heeps’ seductive, highly saturated colours and sophisticated pictorial structures demonstrate a true love and empathy for his subject matter – be it cool, descriptive interiors, still life, portrait or landscape. His distinctive style pushes the limits of lens-based photography without the need for digital manipulation. He runs his own darkrooms in Cambridge (UK) where he hand prints his colour photography. His work has been exhibited in Museums and Public Galleries around England, and he has participated in Art Fairs around the world, and his work is now part of many international collections.

Materials used:

Photographic Paper, C Print, Silver Gelatin
