The series is simply called “Eggs”
The concept is simple: one egg paired with a companion.
I started with the photo of “Egg and Wood Hand” but after I felt the need to further explore the relationship/dualism between the egg and a companion…clearly the companion object is the is the main protagonists of each photo.
I felt the need to alternate a black background with a white one to give more rhythm to the series
Another aspect of the series, but in general of my work, is that the majority of the subjects that appear in the photos have been found, in this case in the streets of Paris.
I bought only 5 of them: Butterfly, Spool of Thread, Crystal Egg, Pipe, Spinning Wheel (the Dollar and the Wood Hand were gifted to me).
I personally hate the term “still life” or even “natura morta”: they are just plain wrong and stupid! My experience is that my subjects, indeed they are not objects, is that they are neither dead or still: they move despite my efforts and they live (very subtlety) in front of my eyes…also they do often whatever they want.
