Trygve Skogrand, “Taking Flight”, 2009
Trygve Skogrand’s digital photomontages “express a longing for harmony and serene beauty”, mixing religious iconography with everyday scenes.
Mariano Petit de Murat, “Fading Heart”, 2010
Mariano Petit de Murat digitally manipulates photography but his craftsmanship makes the process almost transparent. His work seems solid, realistic and dreamlike at the same time.
Mehmet Akten, “Reincarnation/Iatrogenesis”, 2009
Working with the Rambert Dance Company Mehmet “Memo” Akten created software that tracks and responds to dancers’ movements, the result – in this “off-shoot film” – is hypnotic.
Jean-Francois Rauzier, “Voyages Extraordinaires”, 2009
Another Hyperphoto from Jean-Francois Rauzier, exemplifying his ability to create all-encompassing viewpoints. Difficult to represent on a web page, this work seems to wrap around the viewer while simultaneously being both “zoomed out” and “zoomed in”.
Adam Martinakis, “Space With Two Suns”, 2010
Adam Martinakis’s virtual scenes could never exist in the physical world and yet seem like real, atmospheric places.
Thomas Demuth, “Ecce Homo 23″, 2007
Thomas Demuth has coined the term “polygonist” to describe his visceral work. Digital geometry is often expressed in un-smoothed planes and every subject is contained within a cell-like box, however the overall effect is expressive and full of life.
Gilles Tran, “Fall”, 2008
Another unsettling and surreal piece from Gilles Tran. The use of unexpected diagonals gives an everyday scene an enormous twist.
Alex Dragulescu, “Pwslineage”, 2002-2008
This peice is part of the series “Malwarez”. Comissioned by Messagelabs, Alex Dragulescu’s software creates virtual organisms in response to the effect that Worms, Trojans, Viruses and Spyware have on a computers internal systems. Below another program generates virtual buildings that respond to Spam

Jean-Francois Rauzier, “Citadelle 1″, 2008
Rauzier’s “hyperphotos” are made of hundreds of individual photographs, in this case of a hotel in Paris. They are incredibly detailed and massively high resolution.
Rausizer’s work is at Waterhouse and Dodd from the 25th November until 18th December.

Alessandro Bavari, “The Gate”, 2000
