A different look at the challenge subject, this still life is very reminiscent of the late 19th, early 20th century Russian genre of art called Constructionism. The primary element of this school of thought was the concept of Faktura - referring to the material aspect of the surface each part exhibiting its own distinctiveness and unique nature. Clearly, this image reflects that concept and shows it in it's most positive light. The rich textures and colors of the satin are complimentary of the foreground objects in every way. A success from a technical standpoint with one minor issue not worth mentioning as it takes a while to see it. Artistically, the author showed evidence of having patience in setting the image up and properly using light and shadow to it's best effect. While it may not suit the general taste, this should properly be placed as a ribbon winner for it's concept and execution in addition to it's overall artistic impact. Well done. |
