It's Still Life: Chapter 10

Welcome to the 5th edition of The Pulse -- The State of the Art -- a survey in words and pictures of the online artist community. The Pulse is a collaborative project that aims to introduce you to new artists, help you get to know familiar faces even more, and allow you access into the creative hearts and minds of a very talented crew of individuals. More than 130 artists have answered a series of questions which make up The Pulse. Their responses will be presented in a series of online posts which will run every Sunday.
Style File, Techniques & Tools, and Master Class were the first three projects posted and links to all these posts can be found on the sidebar of my blog. The fourth project, It's Still Life, continues now...


Participants were asked to photograph a still life that you create using an array of objects.

"After my father passed away, I found, among other things, a bucket of marbles in his tool shed. As a little girl, he and I would often go for long walks. On these walks he would always find 'things' like marbles, or keys, or coins. I remember that he would pick up these things, look at them closely and wonder out loud about who might have lost such a treasure. I never knew what he did with these things, but years later, here they all were, right where he left them."

"I felt compelled to use this image - it was such a magical moment! And at first glance...'a still life'"

Kim Logan
"This is an image I took at an exhibition in London at the Haywood gallery last year. It is Ernesto Neto: The Edges of the World. An incredibly inspirational and engaging artist melding sculpture with architecture in a fascinating way."

"I can't 'organise' a still life. I have them around me all the time comprised of objects that are casually discarded, or placed down haphazardly because there is usually something more pressing to attend to elsewhere."

"Eggs! My current obsession!!"

"A still life that I've created using objects...in this case a tablecloth and an eyeglasses case."
