Dominic Episcopo, Photographer, New York

Description

This moody still life photograph by Dominic Episcopo features a dramatic arrangement of various pumpkins, striped squashes, and gourds resting upon a dark, rustic wooden table. A sliced squash reveals pale flesh and seeds on a small plate alongside a knife, while wisps of smoke drift upward from a small lit candle. The composition utilizes deep chiaroscuro lighting, casting rich shadows across the textured surfaces and earthy tones of the scene. The dark, mottled background enhances the classical painterly quality of the arrangement.
