I had a long-standing collaboration with artist Thomas Adank for Bon Magazine. The images we conceived, published in a fashion magazine, served tho challenge the preconceptions and expectations of the product still life image. The visual codes (lighting, focus on product etc) all follow the rules of the classic still life – but with the disconnect created by adding mass market products, cheap Chinese-made figurines and computer-generated stock image backgrounds as well as a good dose of good old fashioned humour.
