Giles Revell – What the Lexus LS Sees

A man’s head is drawn in fine blue and white contour lines against black. It reads as a topographic map of a face rather than a photograph. The ear and jaw stay solid; the crown breaks into loose dots.

In the advertisement, the same head sits beside a Lexus LS in a dark studio. The caption runs “through the eyes of the Lexus LS and photographer Giles Revell”, over the line VISIONARIES SEE THE WORLD THEIR OWN WAY.

Giles Revell rendered the face in three dimensions and mapped it to a digital model — real data, abstracted. More work sits at Giles Revell.
