Janelle Jones, Photographer, New York

Description

This still life composition features a lit cigarette diagonally balanced across a small stack of bright, sugar-coated jelly candies against a solid black background. Delicate tendrils of white smoke curl upwards from the burning tip and weave through the arrangement. The candies include a pink circular piece, an orange cube, a yellow wedge, and a blue base piece, all glistening with crystalized sugar. The lighting is focused and dramatic, highlighting the textures of the candy surfaces and the wispy motion of the smoke. Photographer Janelle Jones captured this conceptual image in New York.
