Dean West
Suburbia # 2, 2023
C+C Photography Gallery is pleased to present its newest acquisition from internationally renowned photographer Dean West. The first release from his widely anticipated 2023 series Suburbia, this work elicits a hauntingly familiar tone with its setting in a quiet, traditional American neighborhood. The piercing stare of the solo female figure in the foreground, however, suggests there may be more to this moment than meets the eye.
West is best known for his intricate and highly staged photographs that take everyday occurrences beyond the realm of natural reality. Extraordinary in their tonal range, digital clarity, and artistic vision, his meticulously choreographed scenes, character studies, and atmospheric landscapes powerfully yet synthetically link needs to desires and documentation to invention.
With an accompanying short film coming soon, West invites us to step inside his visually captivating cinematic world for the first time.
Please contact the gallery for more information on Suburbia # 2 or to reserve one of West's limited edition prints, available now in 4 sizes.
