DANIEL O'GORMAN Represents

PICTURES curated by Ken Miller

PICTURES gathers 12 large-format photographic abstractions by Sam Falls, Mariah Robertson, Marcelo Gomes and Taisuke Koyama.

Visually alluring with a profound impact, these images highlight an intriguing new development in our relationship to photographic images.
