Franck Hamel, Photographer, Paris

Description

A moody still life composition features an arrangement of dark, decaying tropical fruit against a distressed black background. A halved watermelon reveals a vivid red interior while resting atop darkened melons. A whole pineapple stands to the left alongside deeply browned and spotty bananas curving along the bottom surface. The lighting is low-key and dramatic, accentuating the textured, rough surfaces and the rustic, somber mood of the arrangement. This artistic still life study was captured in Paris by photographer Franck Hamel.
