FINE ART AFRICA
C O N T E M P O R A R Y

Luke Cormack
Luke Cormack is a South African-born filmmaker and artist whose work is rooted in decades spent in some of the most remote places on earth. Originally from Zululand, his early years as a game ranger instilled a deep respect for nature and the untamed landscapes of Africa.
​
Now working internationally as a Director of Photography, Luke creates documentaries and cinematic work for global broadcasters including the BBC, National Geographic, Netflix, Disney+, Apple and Paramount. Alongside this, he has developed a distinctive fine art practice, transforming fleeting encounters with wildlife into enduring works of art.
​
Each image begins in the field, often after days of patient observation, waiting for a moment when light, movement and instinct align. The work is then carefully crafted using handmade Japanese Kozo paper, layered onto gold leaf and sealed in resin.
​
The result is imagery that carries both the immediacy of the wild and a sense of timeless depth.
