The Deep Focus series, completed in 2021, borrows visual techniques from film and photography, and illustrates how cropping and framing can alter the viewer’s perception of any scene. The title of the series refers to a cinematic technique that communicates narrative through the foreground, middle and background, rather than focusing on one visual plane over another.

Dylan’s cinematic references result in evocative, often mysterious, compositions suspended between life and theatre, while conjuring a distinctly tangible pictorial experience. Although these new works prominently depict figures and portraits, much of the iconography that was featured in Dylan’s earlier series The Beaten Path is still recognisable – diners, motels, roadsides and city streets.

All pieces in the Deep Focus series have been expertly made in the UK using the some of the best printing technology. Produced on a flatbed printer, you'll see a brushstroke-like finish paired with extremely vivid colours that completely lend themselves to this new program from Bob Dylan.

You can purchase this piece in a framed or unframed set.
