Contemporary Art_Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison

The works of Robert and Shana Parkeharrison contain an enormous inspiration. Their pictures tell stories.

Their job is like a documentary of imaginary events. Their way of documenting is magical and surreal. These images combine performance, sculpture, painting and photography. Each image is a collage that connects with several of his photographs, wax and paint are added and this is how are these images that are extremely beautiful but also bleak.
The photos require long and elaborate staging, almost as if it were a film production, and once done ​​the picture, the process continues with digital retouching. The aged texture of the images and the dense atmosphere of these creations lead to images of immense melancholy.
The creations you can see the clear influence of literature, theatre,film and painting.
