James Johnson-Perkins

 

These GIGATAGE works are ultra-large scale digital images made with Gigapan technology mixed with montaged elements which are epic landscapes of modern and historical figures in renowned sites and civic squares, including: The Rialto Bridge/Venice, Times Square/New York, Red Square/Moscow, Patan Square in Kathmandu and Brighton Pier.

By carefully selecting and positioning the figures based on different themes: Ethics, Religion, The Uncanny, Refuge and War, Johnson-Perkins creates Taxonomies of these narratives, which in themselves explore history, identity, and place. These works also connect with iconic historic artists, specific artworks and thinkers, which are reflected in the GIGATAGE titles such as: Canaletto, Raphael, Bosch, Gericault, Schopenhauer and Confucius.
