Mobile Photography & Art Flickr and Instagram Showcase – 8 November 2020

When I think of still life, I revert back to its origins in painting. The ‘still’ often represented as flowers, fruit or other decorative displays. Created in history as a means for an artist to practice techniques but also to portray their wealth. It also acts as a reflection of time. What we never see is the human figure, still life is a means to communicate truths and stories about humanity. Still Life is all around us, it’s where we once were, or where we will be next. It offers another sense of life, a different way of seeing. It matters because we matter, still lives is what keeps us close, still living, still breathing, still seeing. Still life, life is still in pure rapture.

Thank you to all the talented artists for submitting your works to our showcase this week.
