Tierney Gearon



This remarkable image is a double exposure from Tierney Gearon's new exhibition opening tonight at Phillips de Pury & Company in London. One of 40 new works each printed at 40 x 50 inches, the entire series titled "Explosure", is comprised of combined images where the compositions and themes act in counterpoint to each other. It's difficult to follow the image above with anything better, so to see a selection of other images click here.

Thanks for the head's up. You can spend a bit of time getting lost in these.
Here's some that Damon Winter did for the NYT which I thought were pretty cool and very smart.
