Mario Sorrenti
Mario Sorrenti (w/ Art Partner) is one of those quickly-becoming-old-gaurd shooters that I’ve always respected but who’s work I’ve personally never enthusiastically anticipated. Lately, though, he’s been doing some sick-o stuff that I think is a departure from not only his usual fare but from the ubiquitous NYC diet of seamless and softboxes. The deconstruction and vintage sci-fi-film-feel here makes me think of buying a digital camera. Props, Mario. Love that you’re still pushing it.

it’s good to have your eyes and inspirations back.
the gloomy fall needed a little uplifting.
and here it is, with arms crossed over head while jumping through a window.
That dude jumping through the window is amazing. I’m curious how many takes were required to get it just right.
