Rey Contreras is a photographer and graphic designer at Altered State Productions. Contreras specializes in art direction and brand development, utilizing shape, color theory, balance, composition, and psychology to create a silent conversation between art and viewer.
A thorough examination of this dialogue inspires his work to dissect, digest, and deliver the world in a new way for the audience to consume. Contreras masters this process through his fixation on the small details of daily life. Moments that are easily dismissed and often overlooked become the basis for in-depth life studies.
Some of the Dallas-based photographer’s work features dramatic fire performances, surreal neon-lit imagery, architecturally beautiful photos, and striking portraits. What stands out is his ability to capture branded products, people, and the literal streets themselves with equal impact, all rendered with intense colors and bold lighting.
Contreras has also created notable work in design, digital, and print media. Known for highlighted campaigns including ‘Artist Portrait #286,’ ‘Musical Prodigy,’ and many other recognized works such as the ‘Sunset Lamp’ commercial photography campaign for Vivitar, further showcasing his thematic styles in the industry.
With a background in painting, 2D media, and art theory, Contreras explores the nature of creation as a tool. The artist’s work goes beyond intellectual boundaries and connects with a deeper level of creativity. This unique approach combines discipline with intuition—or sometimes with elements that are ahead of their time—to create a timeless body of work.
