conch and tulips vanitas scene set underwaterThe Vanitas series revisits the still life tradition through an underwater photographic process, extending a lineage that emerged most prominently in seventeenth century Dutch painting. Working entirely in water, these compositions draw on historical motifs associated with mortality, transience, and the passage of time. Floral specimens, organic matter, and carefully selected objects are staged within a submerged environment where light, reflection,

capturing a moment where destruction and form briefly coincide

suspended in a state of quiet tension as textures emerge

Today these illuminated designs are all but a memory
