Imaginary Planets in interiors: a gallery of simulated settings

Discover my Imaginary Planets in interior settings through this gallery of stylised scenes. Here, my photographic creations encounter different spaces, colours and materials. Each example offers a way of looking at the work and imagining the place it might occupy in your everyday life.

The interior scenes in this gallery are display simulations designed to help you visualise how the works might look in your home. The scale, lighting and appearance may vary depending on the location, format and finish chosen. The artwork descriptions detail their characteristics; I can assist you in planning a personalised project.

If you wish to pair an artwork with your space, my article on hanging and showcasing a fine art photograph offers guidance on selection and display.

Two perspectives on a personal space

The luminous composition of Éclairée and the vegetal presence of Monde Aride open up two distinct worlds. Whether in an office or a bedroom, my priority is always the encounter between an image and a sensibility.

Marine Blue and Pink Corals

Day Cargo and A Coral Dream demonstrate how my Imaginary Planets can interact with the surrounding colours. One brings a blue universe to life, whilst the other introduces more vibrant shapes and colours.

Indoor Imaginary Planets: plant life

The Green Swirl and This Way offer two approaches to depicting the landscape. The circular movement or the line drawn across the field becomes a focal point within the space.

Lines, Curves and Materials

The interwoven structure of *Woven Light* and the wave-breakers in *Proud!* echo the lines of the furniture and architecture. The artwork can complement these lines or introduce a contrast.

From One Palette to Another

‘Water Lily of Light’ features intense greens and a touch of pink. ‘The Lonely Tree Revisited’ offers a softer interpretation, in pastel shades. These presentations invite you to compare the emotions and atmospheres they evoke.

A warm presence, a monochrome style

‘Regeneration’ features golden and orange hues. The black-and-white interpretation of Angkor Wat offers a different perspective on my work, focusing on forms and contrasts.

Imagine one of my works in your home

If a particular piece catches your eye, please contact me with its title and the dimensions of your space. We can discuss presentation options, available finishes and how it will complement your interior.

To learn more about the project, explore the formats of Imaginary Planets, or continue your tour of the gallery. My photographs are available as limited editions, each signed and numbered and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. To compare colour palettes, browse the works in blue, green or pink, then the selections in red, yellow and those in which black structures the composition.

To help you determine the dimensions of your display space, my guide to the size of an art photograph per room suggests trying out a template. The formats for the Imaginary Planets then outline the options to consider for each work.
