Boldness of Expression is one of the themes photographer David Wagner says permeates his work. It is for this reason I find it so exciting every time I am able to feature his photographs. It is a difficult task for anyone today, especially in the world of photography, to be distinctive but David's work is just that.
There is an energy, bold and sexual yes, but there is also something more. I think the energy stems from the LA in WagnerLA. David's lighting, the feel, even within his studio work seems to draw energy from the California heat. Maybe it David's eye as a designer but I always feel David is mixing modern masculinity with retro Hollywood sensuality, a heat pre air conditioning heat you can can never really escape.
Having been a fan of each others work, model Jason YC Wang, Dr Wang to you, (Jason has his PhD in molecular biology) drove from San Diego to LA to experience the heat. Molecular biology is a branch of biology that deals with the formation, structure, and function of macromolecules essential to life, and especially their role in cell replication and the transmission of genetic information.
With so much science, data and test tubes from nine to five what an incredible contrast to strip off the lab coat at the end of the day and step from behind the microscope lens into the focus of a camera lens.
There is not a lot of expressive creativity in the field of a molecular biology. It is that much more essential then to find a way to assert your creative side when not at work. You can check out more of Jason's bold expressions on ModelMayhem HERE: where you can see his collaborations with many of my favorite artists.
