Desire 2 Drive
This photograph by Dingo, taken for a Ford KA advertisement, embodies the spirit of audacity and surrealism with a touch of elegance typical of the artist.Captured in the heart of Paris, on a busy street with the Vendôme column as a backdrop, the image features an elegantly dressed woman attempting to open the door of a Ford KA displayed on the rear panel of a bus. The striking visual effect lies in the perfect illusion that the car is an integral part of the urban setting, blurring the boundary between reality and advertising. Here, Dingo plays with perspective and the absurd, presenting a scene where city and advertising merge in an almost tangible interaction. The woman, wearing a bright orange coat, stands out against the monochrome gray background of the Parisian buildings, adding a lively, energetic dimension to the composition. The idea that one could “enter” the image suddenly becomes possible, creating a moment of surprise and visual pleasure. The blurred movements of the surrounding cars and passers-by accentuate the dynamics of the city, contrasting with the frozen action of the woman and the car on display. The scene plays on the notion of mobility and desire, suggesting that the Ford KA, small but full of character, is the perfect accomplice for navigating the urban tumult with style and ease. This work is a perfect example of how Dingo transforms a simple advertisement into a surreal and elegant moment, where the city becomes a playground for ideas and imagination. It captures attention not only for its visual beauty but also for the subtle humor that emerges from this unexpected interaction between person and image, inviting the viewer to see beyond the surface and savor the pleasure of détournement.

The floating frame, sleek and modern, is one of the preferred framing choices for contemporary art galleries and museums.
The floating frame perfectly enhances your photographic print.
The spacing between the frame and the image creates a floating effect and highlights the image, making it an ideal art frame to maximize the depth and elegance of the artworks in our collection.
The print is mounted on a 2 mm Dibond panel and placed in the frame.
The depth of the floating frame is 4 cm, and the gap between the photograph and the inner edges of the frame is 0.8 cm for black or white finishes and 1 cm for wood finishes (Oak, Wenge, etc.). This arrangement creates a visually pleasing “floating” effect. Finally, a hanging system is attached to the back of the frame for a quick, easy, and secure installation.
This classic framing combines timeless elegance and sophistication, offering a sublime presentation for your most precious artworks and photographs. A wooden or aluminum frame, chosen for its simplicity and nobility, adds a touch of authenticity and refinement to your piece.
The mat, an essential element of this ensemble, enhances the artwork by creating a visual space around it. It highlights the details and nuances while adding extra depth. Carefully selected, it perfectly complements the artwork without overwhelming it, allowing every detail to stand out.

With its unmatched clarity and anti-reflective properties, it ensures perfect visibility from every angle, allowing your artwork to shine without distractions.
