Joseph Gardner, Set Designer, Sydney

Description

This still life composition features a neutral-coloured fedora hat resting atop a stack of rustic, weathered stone blocks and timber pieces. Long, draped cream-coloured silk ribbons hang downward from the hat, framing the central vertical structure. A delicate dried botanical stem rests against the front stone block, while wisps of dandelion seeds sit nearby on the flat wooden surface. The lighting is soft and directional, casting gentle shadows across the earthy, muted brown background. The moody colour grading and tactile textures emphasise the handcrafted, sculptural nature of the set design created by Joseph Gardner.
