Contact us regarding framing options. In this series, Brad Wilson expands and deepens his investigation of the genre and its place in art history, building upon his previous animal portraiture, Affinity. The artist meticulously worked over each sheet of expired Polaroid film from the start of his career, allowing an abstract landscape of tone and texture to take shape. During the process, he inserted his fingerprints, a distinctive personal mark that alludes to the omnipresent human hand prints that go along with animal representations in the earliest Paleolithic paintings discovered on cave walls. He then blended his modern in-studio portraits of wild animals with these altered artifacts. Then, these new pictures merge the past and present; they represent the unchangeable bond between humans and wildlife resulting from our species' co-evolution. Brad Wilson transcends the boundaries of wildlife or nature photography : his powerful photographs represent a world of instinct and intuition – a fully natural world. The artist pulls us into this world with large, exquisitely detailed photographs, offering up a compelling feeling of intimacy and proximity seldom experienced. He intentionally removes all barriers and distractions so the animals depicted move vividly forward out of a deep black background to thoroughly reveal themselves and to challenge our notion of what it means to be human.
