Fine Art / Still Life
A still life is not an object. It is a posture.
In my fine art still lifes, I explore what remains when movement disappears. Flowers, vessels, paper, glass, fabric โ not as subjects in themselves, but as carriers of time, fragility and attention. The work lives in the tension between what still holds and what is already letting go.
I build each image through restraint: careful light, deliberate composition, and space for silence. Nothing needs to happen โ meaning arises precisely from that stillness. These photographs are not documentation, but slowed encounters with reality.
Black & white and colour
While black and white is an important foundation in my work, fine art is not limited to a single visual language. Some images ask for reduction; others ask for presence.
I work in black and white when form, light and silence are sufficient to hold the image. I use colour when the photograph needs a trace of life, vulnerability, or impermanence that cannot be abstracted without losing honesty. Colour remains muted and earthy โ never decorative, always purposeful.
