Luke Gilford cites Hollywood and the power of celebrity as his primary objects of inspiration.
A photographer, filmmaker, and installation artist based in Los Angeles, Gilford is best known for his high-fashion collaborations. Though the artist ultimately prefers photography for its ability to economically convey ideas, he turned to making videos out of a desire to work in a more collaborative manner. While the tone of his work varies according to project, sexuality consistently occupies a major role in his images and serves as a reliable access point.
