Believe / David Infante
Spanning 15 years of work, Believe is a photographic monograph that brings together the artist’s personal archive in a new series of visual abstractions that are at once cosmic and haunting. A visualization of non-linear time, his images are more than photographs; they are visceral, poetic fantasies that submerge, thaw, and conceal, both visually and technically. Through his surreal dreamscapes, David contemplates the projection of the existential self, caught between individual fantasy and earthly reality.
