What is still life?

 

It all begins with a fascinating object or collection of objects. To me, still life is the arrangement of objects in a way that entices the viewer to, ‘Look at me’.

Stillness is an invitation to stay a while and observe and awaken the senses.

Smell the mould on the lemon. Taste the zest of the lime. Feel the dimpled skin of the orange.

It’s never about just what you see in front of you, it’s about your experience, your memories.

Be in the present. Be in the past. You can inhabit two spaces simultaneously through art.
