SHORT STORIES: STILL LIFE'S SERIES ARTIST STATEMENT: These still life's were created in June of 2020 days after a sixth surgery for Endometriosis with support and help from my mother. They are vignettes incorporating bits and pieces from my history containing
Short Stories that explore family, loss, and the process of an incurable disease. Each photographic print is an experimentation of arrangement and contemplation dealing with my emotional trauma.
Short Stories: Still Life Series is a petite body of work filled with self exploration from my roots and childhood.
Brandy Sebastian, 2020 Images from this series are created as one of a kind finished art prints. The still life's are printed by the artist, fixed to a backing board then coated with a satin gel finish using brush stokes as a means of giving each piece a feeling of a coated oil painting. The finished pieces are printed for size according to found up-cycled highly detailed antique gold frames in order to recreate an old family heirloom portrait and master's painting.
