| | | Daniel Wheeler : GULP
Duncan Miller Gallery, Los Angeles, CA USA United States of America Artist Daniel Wheeler submerges into new realms with his latest photography series 'GULP', opening April 9, 2009 at Duncan Miller Gallery. Artist Daniel Wheeler in his new photography series GULP, uses the iconic Southern California swimming pool as both medium and muse in which to capture the surrounding, urban landscape. GULP, Wheeler's first exhibition at Duncan Miller Gallery, will be on view from April 9 through May 30, 2009. An opening reception for the artist will be held on Thursday, April 9, from 7-9 p.m.�In these large-scale, color photographs, Wheeler makes the connection that 'The peculiar garden that is urban Southern California would not exist without added water. With my photography, it's viewed through that chlorinated lens.' To create these unique landscape images, the performance element is key: in each shot, Wheeler fully submerges in the swimming pool as he points his camera to the surface of the water, capturing the play of light and image distortions created by one gulp, one singular breath and exhalation. The results are surprising and strikingly beautiful images that are suggestive rather than descriptive, alluding to 'landscape' rather than describing them explicitly. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com
