Erik Madigan Heck: The Garden

Drawing inspiration from Catholic iconography, landscape paintings, and color theory, The Garden depicts Heck’s family and the surrounding environs. Complementing the dreamlike aesthetic with colorful and lavish clothing, gestures of poignancy, and a verdant environment, The Garden captures the everyday life lived in beauty. These images are influenced by the ambient light of Edgar Degas, as well as the painting style of Les Nabis, a group of young French painters during the late 19th century. An accompanying publication will be released this Fall by Damiani.

Erik Madigan Heck is an internationally acclaimed fashion photographer and artist working primarily in photography, painting, and film. His work explores the intersection of photography and painting, and his distinctive use of color pushes the limits of what a camera can capture.
