My latest limited edition print is available NOW in two sizes at my store slinkachu.com/store
I am really proud of this one. Photographed just last week in Battersea park, this image almost blew me away too when I took it off the camera. It was one of those lucky shoots where the Autumn sun came out for just a few minutes at just the right time to bring my miniature installation to life.
The female figure is suspended by a thin 'hidden' wire that, out of focus, almost disappears against the background. When printed, it is practically invisible (although a bit more noticeable on the larger print). The leaves are a combination of different leaves falling over the course of the shoot, blended in to one image to create a blustery feel (one of the rare times outside of a commissioned work that I’ve done some extensive retouching, but it was just impossible to capture in one shot. I should have brought along a leaf wrangler!)
You might remember this unfortunate couple - I used their base models last year, customised slightly differently, stuck to pieces of gum. It’s seems that they are just destined to be kept apart 💔
