Gustav Almestål, Photographer, New York

Description

This still life photograph by Gustav Almestal features a solid rectangular block of translucent red resin resting on a dark horizontal surface. The interior of the resin exhibits dark, branching, organic or fibrous patterns suspended within the glowing red mass. The piece is framed by a dark, rigid structural outline along its top and left edges. A sharp, diagonal beam of light cuts across the background gradient from the upper right, casting strong illumination and soft shadows around the central object.
