Simon Hennessey

You will barely believe your eyes at the sharp paintings by Simon Hennessey from Birmingham, UK. He capitalizes on reflections in sunglasses to portray the city scape or culture. “Constructing my own interpretations of a reality results in blurring the boundaries of what is real and what is made up. I use the camera only as a source to assist me with gathering information.” The crystal clear imagery accentuate strands of hair, skin pores, and every glittering detail on the glasses lens. It is the phenomena of a more-than-real-life zoom in. Nowhere else can we find such immaculate takes on a day in the sun.
