About

This still life photograph features a sculptural stack of various artisan cheese wedges and blocks balanced precariously on a marble serving board. A wedge with a distinct caramelized rind sits atop the column, while rectangular blocks and crumbly fragments form the sturdy base. The arrangement rests on a wooden table surface with a dark slatted wooden chair visible in the soft-focused background. Warm, natural lighting highlights the granular textures and varied tones of the dairy products. Captured by photographer Yago Castromil in Madrid, the composition carries an organic and tactile quality with subtle analog film borders at the base.
