BACKGROUND:
Developed by the artist, Andrew Levitas, using a unique process called Metalwork™ photography, is a process involving the transfer of photographs into transparencies that are then melted onto hand-detailed metal sheets. The result is a work that combines the imagery of a photograph with the presence of a sculpture.

While these works are printed as editions, they function, in fact, as unique objects since each print differs, depending on the level of hand tooling on the metal. The result is an illuminating and reflective surface, which gives movement and life to the image of the reclining leopard.
Condition Report: Excellent.
