We love these artworks which show the fascinating interplay between Night and Day.
“We’re fascinated by life’s journey. What starts out as hope so often becomes overpowered by temptations and vices, power and corruption. We are driven to depict this poignant essence that is inherent in the human condition.” 3am captures the atmosphere of this message taken in New York in 2015.
Haker’s ‘Countless Dreams’ depicts an oddly tidily made bed set within an abandoned, derelict bedroom. Instantly, the viewer is asked to question why the home was left abandoned? And why it was left with such a sense of pride? Haker’s narrative eye points us to curious stories untold. Warm light floods the room picking up its exquisite textures and colours: aqua blues, burnt oranges and ivy greens. Religious figures stand strong, as if resisting the passage of time.
Shot through sun-filled windows, the warm dappled shadow that stretches across the floorboards emphasizes the romantic and encroaching forces of nature. The colours of the palatial room come to the fore here as our eyes pick up on the warm browns, blues and finally greens of the world outside.
