Beth Galton, Photographer, New York

Description

This conceptual still life image by New York-based photographer and director Beth Galton presents a dark, theatrical tableau featuring a frosted cupcake, a white clock face with bold numerals, and wisps of smoke rising from a small candle. Scattered dark red rose petals and various small objects rest on a pale surface against a deep black background. The central dark photograph is layered over a white paper background framed by a thin wire circle and surrounded by torn paper scraps bearing handwritten cursive notes. Three burnt candles lie on the left side of the white border. The lighting is focused and dramatic, highlighting the textures of the frosting, smoke, petals, and paper fragments.
