'The Observer'

An Exclusive with Petrolicious and Alan Thornton

Our friends at Petrolicious spent some time with Amalgam's partner artist Alan Thornton, exploring his transition from commercial photography to fine art, and a halftone printing process that is all about precision.

"Alan Thornton challenges our obsession with resolution by embracing reduction. Using halftone printing, he transforms everything from vintage Formula 1 cars to modern hypercars like the Aston Martin Valkyrie into large format fine art.

No gloss, no filters. Just light, structure, and intent. His background in commercial photography drives a process that is all about precision."

Discover more in the short video on Petrolicious' YouTube channel and in their 'Alan Thornton: The Art of Reduction' article below.
