Nicole Louie, Prop Stylist, New York

Description

An overhead still life composition captures a cluttered round white table arranged with various office supplies and personal items. Prominent objects include a pair of tortoiseshell glasses resting atop manila folders and loose papers, a white coffee cup and saucer containing dark liquid, a coiled charging cable, a wooden ruler, a notepad with a pencil, a rotary card index, a crumpled piece of paper, and an eaten apple core. Strong directional lighting casts sharp, dramatic shadows across the table surface, creating high contrast and depth. The arrangement exhibits careful prop styling with an editorial and observational quality.
