Still life art depicts everyday objects such as flowers, food, plants, etc which are beautifully and harmoniously arranged on tables or other surfaces.
Geliografic offers us a very radical and insidious visual of digital still life paintings depicting machine guns, grenades, bombs and other weapons side by side with the harmless and gentle motifs. Needless to say, this represents a complete subversion of the genre that I personally find somewhat disturbing but very attractive at the same time.
