The Dailes is currently
showing at the Spruth Magers Gallery, London (also in Berlin) Showing work
from a German photographer Thomas
Demand. In this show he's presenting the idea of looking at everyday,
mundane objects within an specific environment. Thomas Demand creates his
imagery through the dye transfer process which involves securing a number of
dyes to paper using a gelatine substance to created high saturated, vibrant
colours.
My own images
Thomas Demand brings us to
the attention of looking at how everyday objects are obscured which are
normally left un-noticed as something we would take for guaranteed. The colours
used within Demands work are vibrant and consistent however the images do a
have a tranquil, calm aspect to them which I think is created by the bland
composition. All his images portray a composition with the object central with
fairly bland surroundings which I feel is to enhance the main focus of the central
object.
