Lois Renner
Austrian artist Lois Renner is another West Collection artist who is a model-maker photographing his models. Like Didier Massard and Kim Keever, Renner creates miniature spaces designed to play with viewers' perceptions. But unlike Massard and Keever, who create super-romanticized worlds, Renner delights in creating familiar, realistic environments like messy artists' studios and interior construction sites. Renner drops rather large, but somehow hidden, clues to the scale of the models confusing many viewers. Is that a real lighter, or an oversized toy?
