David Larwill 'Frenzy I' photography any addition to the speciesDavid Larwills work radiates a direct, spontaneous energy. Rather than focus on single subjects or compositions, he was diaristic and instinctual capturing friends, family, street life, parties and the beach with a sense of boundless childlike wonder. In Frenzy I, Larwill presents a portrait of a man with a hat. Etched in orange against gold, the work is warm in palette but lively in form, a burst of zest from a man who had a nickname for everyone.
