"Still Life" - Collaged Print
"Still Life" - Collaged Print
Still life plays with ideas of posing, display and performance. Three figures sit and stand at the edge of a tiled pool, bodies relaxed but composed, while animal heads replace human faces. The scene feels playful at first, but there’s an underlying strangeness that unsettles the calm.
The work borrows the language of fashion photography and classical still life painting, then disrupts it. Fruit is arranged carefully, colours are soft and inviting, yet the substitutions feel deliberate rather than surreal for effect. It’s not about disguise or fantasy, but about the roles we step into and the way identity can be constructed, repeated and observed.
This piece sits within a broader collage practice that balances humour with restraint, using familiar visual cues to draw the viewer in before gently unsettling the scene.
