David Law - Crypto R2-D2 & C3-PO - Star Wars

Exclusive Cryptos movie Star Wars Series - Reconstituting a photo using images from the films. Artist Photographer – Creator of contemporary images Multidisciplinary photographer, author and musician, David Law develops work focused on gaze, presence and the perception of the image in urban space. He first made a name for himself with a series devoted to storefront mannequins, integrated into the city through a subtle play of reflections and superpositions. This exploration of gaze and presence gave birth to an art book published in 2021. Later, intrigued by the singular aesthetics of collectible dolls and Japanese figurines, he extends this reflection by staging them in the streets of Paris and other European capitals. Through framing, light, and composition, these inanimate models acquire a disturbing, almost living presence, questioning our relationship to illusion and projection. The Cryptos series offers a contemporary rereading of cultural icons through an immersive and vibrant pop art aesthetic. Each work rests on a mosaic construction made up of thousands of photos by the artist or of the subject’s theme. From afar, the image reveals a recognizable figure, while up close it unveils a wealth of visual details. Each fragment acts as a “wave,” evoking the artistic universe of the represented subject. The creation process is long and demanding, requiring precision and mastery of graphic tools. Extensive work is carried out on colors, light, and the overall harmony of the image. Everything is created in an original and independent manner. Edition & Production Each work is offered in a limited edition of 8 copies numbered + 4 artist proofs (A.P.), signed by the artist and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The prints are produced on aluminum with a mounted backing. Printing on bright white vinyl, face mounted between two aluminum plates, with UV and humidity resistant soft lamination, guaranteeing excellent durability, great long-term resistance, color stability and a modern, contemporary look. Career Since 2014, David Law participates in around twenty contemporary art fairs per year in France and Europe. He is also the assigned photographer and videographer for several organizers of contemporary art fairs. Parallel to his visual activity, he develops a writer-performer career including 3 novels, a collection of short stories, a graphic novel, a photo book and 5 self-produced CDs. A singer-guitarist, he currently performs with the group FRENZY.
