Vibrant Doll Faces

Miles Adridge's Exhibiton in London Is Full of Popping Colors

— April 7, 2009 — Fashion
The Hamiltons Gallery in London opened a powerful Miles Aldridge Exhibition this month. As they say, the new Doll Face series is “stupendously glossy and magnetically vibrant world with ultra slick, hyper-lit models and signature acid tones.”

Aldridge is magnificently artificial. He is one of those artist not afraid of imposing his vision onto, well, everything. His erotic style has drawn comparison to Bergman, Dali, David Lynch, Hitchcock and Godard. And I would definitely say Guy Bourdin.

"If the world were pretty enough, I’d shoot on location all the time," the artist says. "But the world is just not being designed with aesthetics as a priority. So I prefer to rebuild it instead of photographing the real one. What I’m trying to do is take something from real life and reconstruct it in a cinematic way."

He works in a post surrealist world where everything is possible and everything is ultimately real. Therefore he mixes not only colors and people and objects in his art, but also design, commerce and fashion all in one.
Trend Themes
1. Hyper-realistic Photography - The use of hyper-realistic photography can help recreate real-life objects and scenes in a highly aesthetic manner.
2. Bold Colors in Fashion - Bold and vibrant colors can be used to create stunning fashion pieces that are sure to turn heads.
3. Artificial Reality - Creating an alternate reality through artistic medium can provide a unique experience for the audience.
Industry Implications
1. Photography - Photography industries could take advantage of hyper-realistic photography techniques to stand out and provide stunning experiences to clients.
2. Fashion Design - The use of bold and vibrant colors can help designers create unique and stunning fashion pieces that captivate their audience.
3. Art Galleries - Art galleries could experiment with providing an alternate reality experience to their visitors through mixed media artwork.
