Theme and Selection

“Moment In Time 2018” – Artwork or photography featuring still life composition can be a very personal view of an artist’s daily life featuring an arrangement of inanimate, everyday objects, whether natural organic objects such as flowers, food, wine, etc. and or manufactured items such as books, bottles, crockery, etc. expressing and capturing a moment in time.

The magic of still life imagery is that they can show us a new way of looking at the ordinary objects around us. Once they are placed into a specific arrangement and then captured in paint, ink, pastel, photography or any other medium - the objects take on a whole new meaning. They are imbued with a life beyond the ordinary. Their existence becomes recorded in time.

The objects chosen for a still life painting often have a special meaning, either on a personal, cultural, societal, religious or philosophical level. The themes surrounding the artwork often provoke introspection and reflection in the viewer. The way that the objects are depicted can evoke a wide variety of emotions, depending on their arrangement, as well as the lighting, color choice, and handling of the paint. These are all things to take into account when viewing a still life artwork. They are especially important to consider when you are creating one.

All submissions for consideration may be expressed in any of the following aspects: representational, expressionism, surrealism, or abstraction.
