Mary Katrantzou with her bold blossom graphics and décor inspired collection for A/W 2011/12 season conquers the hearts. The line is an excellent element for the surreal photography of Erik Madigan Heck. Hype - vivid prints of Katrantzou in conjunction with Heck’s dream-like scenario vibe, create a series of exclusive shoots that were featured in Nomenus Quarterly – one of the most luxurious magazines.

The main inspirations were taken from the interior paintings which were regarded as the masterpieces of 19th century French painters -  Pierre Bonnard and Edouard Vuillard. As a result, we have an intersection of fashion, fine art and photography. 

Heck comments about the project: “It signifies a different direction in my own work, where I am trying to flatten the space between photography and illustration, by eliminating photographic elements and painting on different surfaces and colors in post-production, attempting to move closer towards painting itself, in process and form.”
