Digital Image Techniques Assignment - Dutch and Flemish still life


This piece of work I have done is based on the work of Dutch still-life artist – Pieter Claesz, more specifically the “Still-Life with Oysters” (figure.2)


In terms of colours and tones, due to the insufficient control I have over the colouring of each individual object in the live-action plate, I haven’t forced the colour palette to be exactly like the original, instead I focused on maintaining the distribution of tones to make sure that an analogous mood could be translated across from the original to my piece.


To accentuate the impression of emptiness intended in the original painting, I have taken advantage of digital video editing and camera tracking to allow my work to exist in a 3-Dimensional space.
