Other's Still Lifes (2013)

Other's Still Lifes was born from a curiosity I had for a building I was temporarily working in during May of 2012. In my time off, I explored the spaces and took pictures without much in mind.

After asking around I discovered that on the floor above me still life paintings and sculpture classes were given to retirees and hobbyists. I visited these rooms several times during that month. Each time I went back, the classroom chairs and easels were re-arranged. The still lifes disappeared and new ones appeared in their place.

This project was made with different cameras: a smartphone, an analog medium format camera, and a DSLR.
