Visual Poetry

Paying homage to Seal’s soulful lyrics, Leica celebrates the human connection in the art of making a photograph, shining light on the subjects of a frame, while simultaneously painting unique perspectives for the artist behind the lens.

In tune with his Grammy-winning music, Seal’s photography evokes emotion, shining a light on the beauty and humanity of the moment. “Photography is storytelling in one sentence,” he says. The Leica Q2 “Dawn” by Seal Camera embodies the visual poetry of light. The camera’s exquisite Japanese woven fabric covering is crafted to ensure each of the 500 cameras in the edition is one of a kind. Drawing inspiration from the golden glow of sunrise and the dance between light and shadow, this set is further accentuated by an exclusive scarf, designed by multimedia artist Annina Roescheise, who placed Seal’s lyrics in gold elements on a black background. The set is also accompanied by a rope strap, adorned with the handwritten lyric “You became the light on the dark side of me” taken from the song Kiss From A Rose. In addition to the unique iridescent fabric, the camera features a black Leica logo, Seal’s engraved signature, and the edition number; Leica.com.
