Keate, Photographer, New York

Description

This macro still life features a collection of crushed cosmetic pigments arranged in an abstract, fragmented composition against a deep black background. The central elements consist of sharp, angular shards and scattered powder in various shades of vibrant blue, turquoise, dark grey, and silver. High-contrast directional lighting accentuates the matte and metallic textures of the broken surfaces, highlighting the rich granular detail of the crushed material. The composition is tightly framed, creating a graphic and textured study of cosmetic textures captured by photographer Keate.
