Charlee Brodsky: The Audacity of the Mundane

What began as a request from a friend for a photograph of pears has become a series of still-life photographs using objects collected over the years to create worlds within small spaces. By re-contextualizing these objects, the artist pays respect to the tradition of still life art while exploring forms and issues that are relevant to the world today.
