About this work

There is something profoundly incongruous about Batman at a fairground — and Sebastian Magnani leans into it with characteristic delight. In Daily Bat – Cotton Candy, the Dark Knight stands amid the spinning lights and sugary air of a carnival, spun-sugar treat in hand, fully committed to the experience. The image is one of the most openly joyful in the Daily Bat series, finding in Batman's famous self-seriousness the perfect foil for something as gloriously frivolous as cotton candy. For acquisition inquiries, contact Guy Hepner gallery in New York.

About Sebastian Magnani

Sebastian Magnani is a Swiss photographer based in Zurich, born in a small village in Canton Valais. He discovered photography during an apprenticeship in media design in 2006 and spent the following five years working as a graphic designer and art director at an advertising agency before transitioning to photography full time in 2011.

Magnani is known for richly colored, intimately staged portraits that combine strong lighting with a cinematic sense of mood. His most recognized body of work reimagines a well known superhero character in quiet, everyday moments, unexpected downtime away from heroics, using contrast between the character's familiar presence and ordinary settings to explore themes of vulnerability, solitude, and the small pleasures of daily life. His background in advertising and design continues to shape the polish and precision of his compositions.

Magnani has collaborated with major international clients, including The New York Times, IWC Schaffhausen, and Apple, and his work has been exhibited across the United States, Australia, and Europe. He has also published photography books and received multiple international awards for his projects.
