scary nature
the cycle of life
fading
I started researching where to get interesting and also a little bit scary-looking vegetables and fruits, which was kind of difficult in Antwerp. But I found a wholesale market in the industrial area, having all kinds of exotic-looking stuff. On the way back with my bike, I also collected some dry wood next to a really busy street. It was so hot that day.
When we started shooting and putting together the arrangement, I wanted to also incorporate something non-organic, so I used pieces of a fruit net. I was more thinking about dry heat, and also the kind of artificial availability of everything and the waste that comes with it. In the end, the customer withdrew from the commission — everything would be fine, except the little piece of plastic. I agree.
