Project Description
A world-wide city fresco started in 2007, the Cityscape photographic series led Nicolas Ruel to cover nearly seventy cities scattered across forty countries and five continents. Through the photographer’s use of an in-camera double-exposure technique—a prevalent feature in his work—Cityscape presents a futuristic image of emblematic cities, a tribute to the architectural splendors, urban landscapes and lifestyles of the earthlings of the 21st century. These large-format stainless steel prints highlight the monumentality of his subjects, which bring the metallic surfaces to life with shimmering inks.
