Dimitri Newman, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

A still life photograph features a composition of stacked objects against a neutral gray background. Dominating the arrangement is a pair of gold-rimmed aviator sunglasses resting on a dark gray box with the text 'ROSE & CO.' printed on it. The box sits atop a weathered, blue-toned book. Below, a dark, angular piece of wood with a light-colored tassel rests on a gray stone, which, in turn, sits on a tan book. The objects are arranged to appear precarious. The shot is evenly lit, highlighting the textures of the stone, paper, and wood. The photograph evokes a sense of curated aesthetic, blending natural and manufactured elements.
