Ward Roberts for Gucci #24HourAce
An exquisite sense of isolation permeates the work of New York-based artist Ward Roberts. His photographs and videos capture the loneliness of modern life, convey aching beauty and fleeting moments of perfection. Everything, from the lines of a basketball court to the unassuming architecture surrounding it, is connected in a way that is both powerful and aesthetically moving. It helps to be grounded, as he is here, in Gucci Ace sneakers. What lights the shoes up—as well as the beauty of all of Ward’s work—are the sudden, subtle unexpected moments. When he turns around, his ankles glitter in metallic red and green. A flash of beauty, walking by on concrete. – Tatiana Berg
