"Art of Arrangement (Untitled)" (2021)
Many things we, as humans, do throughout the day we don’t give a second thought to. We put on clothes, brush our teeth, turn on the car, walk the dog, eat food, and more. But how often do you stop and really notice what you’re doing? In the case of eating food, a lot of the time we eat in a rush, like it’s going to get up and walk away if we don’t eat it fast enough. It’s very rare that we sit down and enjoy every moment that is involved in the process of preparing and eating something.
This photographic collection showcases five different fruits and explores the natural process of eating them, as well as the narrative that is created throughout that process. These fruits are arranged to show the passage of time and all follow a similar formula; one whole fruit, one cut in half, and one cut up even more. This allows the viewer to really analyze the timeline of preparing to eat any one of the various fruits.
Not only does this collection allow the viewers to analyze, but it also combines those thoughts with a more creative side. The bright colors that the fruits are photographed on are complementary to the color of each fruit. This helps the colors pop and emphasizes the importance of creativity when photographing something so methodical.
