PORTFOLIO - Alain Laframboise, Stilleven

Attention: open in a new window.

Also see the linked essay

Alain Laframboise’s photographic stillevens are imbued with the specific rhetoric of the hyper-codified genre that is still-life: the deliberate placement of inanimate and enigmatic objects; directional, dramatic, theatrical illumination (chiaroscuro);

flat, shallow background against which the objects are projected; striking trompe-l’œil effect (which photography does well); hidden symbolic content that invites reflection on the finite and ephemeral character of life.
