Jim Goldberg, Photographer,

Description

This photographic work by Jim Goldberg captures a close-up arrangement of numerous green striped watermelons. Two of the watermelons are sliced open with their bright red flesh fanned outward into starburst shapes, heavily covered in swarming bees. A human hand enters the frame from the upper right, pointing toward one of the sliced melons. The lighting is direct and natural, highlighting the textures of the fruit rinds and the glistening red pulp. The composition is tightly packed and filled to the edges with produce.
