Bio: Spiral Studio is the alter ego of illustrator Darren Hopes. In contrast to my more painterly graphic approach to illustration my Spiral Studio images deal with a starkly photographic aesthetic. The resultant constructed images have been described as having a surreal dreamy atmosphere. they are an amalgamation of usually self conducted photographs subtly composed in photoshop, photographs made with the heart of a painter I hope. I enjoy subject matter with a strong narrative quality, especially with a dark, surreal or emotional twist. I recently came across a review of my work and it contained the sentence 'Spiral delves into the alchemy of moment and narrative' I think that about sums up my vision.
