Golden Apple
1986, printed 1987

A black and white photograph capturing a collection of abstract shapes and forms that resemble smooth stones or organic materials, arranged inside a box-like frame. The composition plays with light and shadow, creating a stark contrast and emphasizing the textures and contours of the objects. A small, cup-like object sits in the foreground, adding to the still life arrangement.
