Las Vegas, after midnight. The city’s light is a mix of neon and desert glow,warm pinks and blues bleeding across weathered brick facades and quiet streets. Ludwig Favre works in the spaces between signage and shadow, where illuminated text reflects on parked cars and palm trees. Figures move through the frames, their silhouettes caught in the spill of artificial light against a deep blue sky or under the harsh sun of day. The palette shifts from the cool tones of dusk to the warm hues of neon, with textures of concrete, glass, and metal rendered in sharp detail. The focus here is on the interplay of artificial illumination and natural light, where the city’s neon signs cast long reflections on wet pavement or glow against retro facades, framing scenes that feel both intimate and expansive.

Neon script glows against a dark facade, its reflections dancing on the wet pavement as figures move away from the light.

The Las Vegas neon night series by Ludwig Favre is available as a limited edition fine art print, signed and numbered.
