WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT

A New York City artist needed a site which presented his vast portfolio yet allowed his intricate art pieces to shine on their own.  Recent works featured layered photographic transparencies which mold the light as it passes through.  As such, I used a black background with non-image elements muted on screen to focus on the artwork.

A custom slide show was created with JavaScript that automatically displays the images in a loop.  At any time, the show may be paused.  Additionally, a visitor may click to view any image at any time causing the show to stop.  From any position, the show may be started again.
