Being equally inspired by fashion photography and surrealism, he constructs elusive imageries and reveals underlying connections between body parts, clothing fabrics and pieces of furniture, exploring the metamorphosis of things and life, architecture and body, object and mind.\u201d\u00a0For his photographs of magazine spreads, he overlays magazine pages and lights them up from the back, creating tender and ethereal pictures.<br \/>\nDanke\u2019s obsession with fashion photography began when he was a little boy, flicking through the pages of his grandmother\u2019s magazines. His mixed-media works, which also include performance and sculpture, have been shown in numerous exhibitions, including MOT International in Brussels, Norma Mangione Gallery in Torino and Neuer Kunstverein in his hometown Aachen, Germany.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45984 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/untitled-1-2.jpg\" alt=\"untitled 1 -
