Rocky Schenck's work lies somewhere between our greatest fantasies and our worst fears. His pieces are consumed by a darkness that is as romantic as it is dangerous. Lurking around deserted landscapes, backyard porches, forgotten highways and abandoned ponds, Schenck travels the world searching for the obscure and mysterious. In his newest pieces, Schenck takes us into the gardens, hotel rooms and dress shops of London, constantly searching for places he can reinvent. Once captured, he manipulates, tones and paints his images until they achieve specific moods. It's these raw emotions that separate his work from all other photographs being produced today. Through his images, we travel into shadows that are as comforting as they are dangerous. In Schenck's world, we are both at ease and at attention -- a rare feeling experienced by art today.
