Surreal Planes, Mary Katrantzou by Erik Madigan Heck featuring Candace Ang Jewelry

One of the rising stars of London Fashion Week + exciting NYC photographer Erik Madigan Heck come together to create this insanely gorgeous shoot featuring Candace Ang Jewelry. Enjoy.

FROM A MAGAZINE:

In conjunction with Nomenus Quarterly, A MAGAZINE is proud to present this exclusive series of images by NY-based photographer Erik Madigan Heck, showcasing the vivid printed designs of Greek designer Mary Katrantzou‘s Fall Winter 2011 collection.

Inspired by the late interior paintings of the 19th century French painters Pierre Bonnard and Edouard Vuillard, Heck has pushed his dream-like aesthetic into new territory, blurring the lines between fashion photography and fine art. Combining Katrantzou’s dazzling architectural demi-couture with (equally decadent) customised sets, Erik achieves a piercing chromatic effect.

Reflecting upon the images, Heck stated “It signifies a different direction in my own work, where I am trying to flatten the space between photography and illustration, by eliminating photographic elements and painting on different surfaces and colors in post-production, attempting to move closer towards painting itself, in process and form.”
