Joachim Knill's 20x30 Still lives.

[K. Praslowicz]

I came across Knill's still lives a few years back and was immediately wowed by the aesthetics of them. Can't say I've ever seen anyone produce similar works. Then I found out he was using a home made 20x30 polaroid camera to do the photography. Searched his name on these forums and got 0 results, thought I'd just share his work.

His website is located here. (http://www.joachimknill.com/photography.html)

And some eye candy for the casual browser.

He was at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston at the same time I was in the late 80s. I did not know him then, but I knew of him. He presented a short black and white film called "The Ball" (I still have the promo flyer for it somewhere in my attic) that was head and shoulders above all the other student work I saw at the time. I've followed his career ever since. Bold vision.

Interesting ideas. The scrappyness of the presentation takes a little getting past, but there are some intriguing things going on there.

You might like Fredrik Ödman's work. More polished, but some lovely surprises amid the gothic playfulness:

More like a poke in the eye.

Contrary to popular belief, a good poke in the eye can be good for your long term well-being.

I like his work. I appreciate the strangeness of it. It takes vision and confidence to put forth what he has.
