Curious Still Life Images Combine Oil Paintings and Photography

Photographer John Chervinsky boggles the mind and captivates the eye in his work Studio Physics. Interested in a medley of contrasting ideas, Chervinsky explores reality vs. representation as well as “the physical phenomena of still and moving objects in space over time.” To create each multi-layered image, the photograph is first composed and shot as a still life. Chervinsky then crops a portion of the photo and sends it to a painting factory in China, where an anonymous artist produces an oil painting of the cropped photograph. The canvas is sent back to Chervinsky, who re-photographs the exact same still life but with the new Chinese addition. Via Faith is Torment. Coffee Still Lives by Brooke Holms.

My Things No.5, 2005 My Things, Booking Keeping of 2007-08 Since 2001, Beijing-based photographer Hong Hao has been recording every single item that passes through his fingers over the course of each day, those he uses and those he discards.

Photographer Scans Every Item He Consumes Over 14 Years, Builds Astonishing Collages

In a practice that he describes as a form of “bookkeeping,” he scans each object one by one, saves the images, and returns to them once more to weave them together into labyrinthine digital collages. Hong Hao’s My Things was born of the artist’s curiosity about modern living and consumption; it became his way of stepping back from and appraising the detritus that accrued throughout his routine.

The Japanese rock garden ("karesansui" or, as it's often called, "zen garden") is a small landscape consisting of carefully arranged rocks, trees and bushes on a bed of sand or gravel raked to represent water.

Bob Cornelis - Karesansui: Photographic Zen Gardens

It is meant to mimic the intimate essence of nature, not its true appearance. It serves as a meditation aid and instills a quiet state of mind. Karesansui was the inspiration for this project. I have been a meditation practitioner for many years and sought to invite others, through these photographs, to enter the still mind-space that meditation brings. I have abstracted the idea of the zen garden using simple shapes, arranged harmoniously with each other and with their surroundings. In the earliest text on Japanese gardening, "creating a garden" is referred to as "setting stones. " Sweet Still Lifes Take Us on a Journey to the Seashore.

© Mirjam Bleeker / Offset © Mirjam Bleeker / Offset Over the course of their two decades of collaboration, Amsterdam-based photographer Mirjam Bleeker and stylist Frank Visser have invented their own language, a finely tuned visual vocabulary that allows them to work almost in silence, with each understanding the artistic impulses of the other.

Sweet Still Lifes Take Us on a Journey to the Seashore

For this reason, says Bleeker, the dynamic duo was able to create a series of vibrant, evocative still lifes using only their joint instincts and hardly any words. The sun-bleached seashells, succulent berries, and dried and fresh flora that compose these arrangements were collected over the course of their travels together to beachside villas or gathered as part of Visser’s extensive collection of curiosities. For the pair of them—Visser placing the objects and Bleeker framing them—the shoot was relatively spontaneous, embarked on as a way of returning to the playfulness and experimentation that drives all artistic endeavors.

Robert Moran. Riguardare. Gli oggetti di Michele Provinciali. Le spiagge di fine agosto serbano gli oggetti che i molti sbadati avventori hanno lasciato, chi gettato, chi dimenticato, chi nascosto; qualcuno è già stato restituito, un po’ per volta, a fine giornata durante l’intera estate, ma ora le cose celate sotto i cumuli di sabbia, prontamente e febbrilmente occultate dalla polvere o allontanate velocemente dall’acqua verso il mare aperto, dormono nella calma dei giorni invernali (per alcune il sonno dura mesi, per altre anni) prima di essere disseppellite come tesori nascosti.

Riguardare. Gli oggetti di Michele Provinciali

Il tempo di queste sparizioni diventa un tempo infinito in cui gli oggetti, persi sotto le dune, cambiano inevitabilmente, facendosi irriconoscibili, come svuotati o sconvolti da quella loro condizione di perdita e abbandono nell’attesa improbabile della grazia del ritrovamento. Le cose si disfano, si sfanno, ma fino a un certo punto. "Icons": le fotografie che hanno cambiato la storia ricreate attraverso miniature Still-Life - Vanilla Magazine.

Photos of Vintage Objects Evoke Nostalgia for Simpler Times. Feeling nostalgic for everyday items that still exist despite being past their prime, photographer Robert Moran collected these now obsolete cultural artifacts for well over three years. Once upon a time these objects were cherished, depended on, used and abused and then discarded, replaced by something sleeker, faster and more efficient. For his still life series Relics, he hopes to honor our inventive past and preserve some of its icons for future generations. Before he began working on this series, Moran had rarely given much thought to vintage items until one day he came across an antique shop. His eyes stumbled on a vintage table fan and he loved the design, it was so unlike a fan we might have in our homes today.
