Nifty Gateway is proud to present the kick off to our NFT photography spotlight. Day 1 of this spotlight consists of a group of landscape photographers who abstract the world around us into something surreal, imaginative and sometimes dark. We are thrilled to showcase the work of the talented photographers Jeff Frost, Johan Lolos, Orejarena & Stein and Briscoe Park.
Jeff Frost
Jeff Frost grew up in a remote corner of Utah hiking with his grandfather and has lived in southern California for the last 23 years. Time and sound are his two primary mediums, often expressed through a number of sub-mediums including painting, photography, video, and installation. Nearly all of the above are combined into short films exploring themes on the spectrum of creation and destruction. Frost’s work has been shown at Mana Contemporary, his own Desert X installation, California Museum of Photography, Museum of Art & History Lancaster (MOAH), Museum of Sonoma County, Palm Springs Art Museum, the Center for European Nuclear Research (CERN), Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), and many others.
Johan Lolos
Johan Lolos is a Belgian-born self-taught travel photographer with a passion for the outdoors and the wilderness. After he graduated in PR in 2013 he left Europe and spent a whole year exploring Australia and showcasing the beauty of the country to his audience, mainly on Instagram. Things got serious when National Geographic, BuzzFeed and DailyMail published his photos of Australia and that’s when he decided to go full-time as an outdoor photographer.
Orejarena & Stein
Andrea Orejarena (b. 1994, Colombia) & Caleb Stein (b. 1994, UK) are a multimedia artist duo currently based in the U.S. Their work has been exhibited internationally and is available through Vin Gallery in HCMC, The Curator’s Room in Amsterdam, and Rose Gallery in LA. Orejarena & Stein have been nominated for a number of major photographic awards, including the Hariban/Benrido Award (chosen by Yasufumi Nakamori, Senior Curator of Photography at Tate Modern), and the W. Eugene Smith Grant (jurors include Teju Cole), amongst others. Their work has been published in i-D Vice, Vogue Italia, The New York Times, The Guardian, It’s Nice That, WePresent, Hamburger Eyes, and Paper Journal Magazine, among many other places.
