THE CREATIVITY

OF AN ARTIST

by Finn Lafcadio O'Hanlon on PX 680 Gold Frame

There is an endless amount of creativity that can be found or put into an IMPOSSIBLE photo. Today we'd like to present one very special artist, Finn Lafcadio O'Hanlon, who combines his drawings with analog instant photos in a unique way.

There is a sense of the weird and medieval in Finn O'Hanlon's drawings. References to tattoo and 'lowbrow' outsider art and the intricate sci-fi/fantasy of French bandes dessinées are apparent but they are incidental to a visual structure clearly derived from Gothic and early Renaissance religious art.

Finn taught himself photography after ending his formal art training in high school. His snapshots of the hard partying, self-negating lifestyles of the surfers and skaters who were his peers soon gained the attention of the highly regarded French photography and visual arts journal, Plateform. The photographs were also recently exhibited in a one-man show at the Wedge Gallery, at Kinokuniya Bookstore, as part of Sydney's Head On Photography Festival.
