Melt
Melt
From the studio ~
Melt began with the wish to give an ordinary indulgence its own ceremony. A bowl of childhood cereal, a ripe fig and a candle are familiar things, but inside this pink-fur room they belong to a moment where breakfast lingers, time loosens and the everyday becomes worth making a scene of. It holds the pleasure of treating an unremarkable moment as though it deserves to be remembered.
I photographed the composition in two takes, then inverted one half so the fig and crystal bowl rest against the ceiling while the lit candle obeys gravity below. The joined perspectives leave the scene balanced between two directions, with the flame and melting wax acting as its single point of orientation.
No generative AI was used in the creation of this work. All composition, editing and embellishment were carried out through deliberate artistic decisions and hands-on processes.
Print Details
This piece features my original photography printed on premium archival-grade canvas using museum-quality giclée printing technology.
The canvas I use is a 340 gsm poly cotton blend with a matte/satin finish. It is scratch, crack, & warp resistant.
The printing process I utilize uses water-based HP Latex inks and UV protection to product vibrant, long-lasting colors.
Framing Details
Your print will arrive framed and ready to hang.
The frames I use are called 'floater-frames'. I've chosen them for 2 reasons: they provide a clean, modern aesthetic that adds depth and dimension to the piece; and the box-like structure provides the option to sit the piece upright on a surface rather than hanging it.
When you look at the work straight on, the frame thickness is 1cm regardless of canvas size. This means that the frame edge will feel more prominent on smaller canvas sizes. From the side, all frames are 4cm deep, this means the front surface of the piece will sit 4cm out from your wall.
My frames are crafted from high quality solid oak or solid hardwood, from renewable sources, and comes pre-installed hanging hardware and rubber bumpers.
