Nick Veasey Hi-Fi Man For Sale

About this work

Nick Veasey has established himself as the foremost artist working with X-ray technology, transforming industrial imaging equipment into a medium for profound artistic inquiry. His work resides in major collections worldwide and has been exhibited at institutions including the Victoria and Albert Museum, positioning him at the intersection of science, technology, and contemporary art. Veasey's process is painstaking and technically demanding—each image requires extensive exposure times and meticulous arrangement, revealing the hidden architecture of everyday objects with forensic precision. Hi-Fi Man exemplifies the artist's ongoing exploration of consumer culture and human identity through the language of medical and industrial imaging. The figure, rendered transparent alongside vintage audio equipment, speaks to our intimate relationship with technology and the objects that define our domestic rituals. Veasey strips away surface appearance to expose internal mechanisms, drawing unexpected parallels between the human body and the machines we create. The work belongs to a broader body of pieces examining how we extend ourselves through our possessions, questioning where the self ends and the object begins. Presented as a framed Chromaluxe print, this edition of 25 offers the luminosity and archival quality that Veasey's intricate imagery demands. The Chromaluxe process infuses the image directly into an aluminum substrate, producing exceptional depth and detail that honours the technical sophistication of the original X-ray capture. Guy Hepner is pleased to offer this work from our New York gallery, with additional sizes available to accommodate specific collection requirements.
