About the artwork

This still life features fruit arranged on a tray against a black background. Bryce Delplanque uses the symbolic motif of fruit to evoke both abundance and the passage of time. The artist varies the visual effects and textures between shots, in which the fruit remains blurred, while the background is in sharp focus. This juxtaposition of elements creates an impression of eerie strangeness. The decorative motifs on the jug, in bluish tones with rosettes, enrich the composition with their rich detail. The importance given to objects is a constant in his visual universe. In this way, the artist seeks to break with the hierarchy between high and popular culture.

Expert opinion

In this painting, Bryce Delplanque presents us with a contemporary still life, featuring numerous decorative details and blurring our perceptions. It could be a new form of contemporary memento mori.
