This piece of one-off, hand-crafted neon/argon lettering was inspired by seeing a work by Bruce Nauman in the Tate. The concept is based on a scripture in Genesis that explains how humanity was formed from the earth with the breath of divine spirit to create a living soul. The switching timer can be set from 0.1s to 1.5s (it's about 0.5s here). There is a small run (limited edition of 10) of these pieces planned. They are 1m wide by 750mm high.

This exhibition presents a combination of painting and photographic work, which collectively explore subject matter where the everyday becomes iconic.


Ross Cunningham Painting:

Having studied architecture and worked in the creative industry for over twenty years, there is a natural emphasis on bold graphic elements and architectural form in Ross’ painting work. 

Pre-production is often carried out digitally, using skills developed in commercial design practice. In tension with this is a desire to remove any digital constraints in the final production, creating a more naive and instinctive expression with scratches, imperfections, accidents and corrections that are not native to the computer screen. 

Growing up on the coast in Northern Ireland, subject matter is often drawn directly from the sea. Common to much of the work is a sense of escapism, be it through nostalgic references or an exploration of iconic and faith-related narratives.


Le Flaneur Photography:

In this body of photographic work, there is a recurring interest in subject matter where everyday objects take on an iconic nature through the heightening of colour and perspective. An early influence was found in viewing first-hand the colour work of William Eggleston - many of Eggleston’s prints were made using the ‘dye transfer process’, a process adapted heavily by Technicolor for the film industry but no longer available for commercial use. Deep saturated colours were achieved by burning a series of separate colour plates back onto the original colour negatives. 

Through advanced digital processes, a post-production workflow has been developed to replicate the physical technique of dye transfer. This ‘colour burning’ process achieves a larger colour gamut and tonal scale in the final printed image. Colour intensity is further accentuated with Giclée printing for all limited edition prints.
