Everybody has Christmas in mind, including me. So in between work, Christmas shopping and preparation, I found these seasonal photographs by Sarah May. The first two are obviously very christmassy: a present and a tree, but the following ones made me think of some excellent conversation pieces for the dinner table. Something to talk about with those relatives you haven’t seen since last Christmas, like “Look how the bubble gum is the exact same colour of this pink rose!”, or more conceptual: “This orange flower looks like a Christmas tree that grew mistletoe on one of its branches”.
Sarah May is a London-based artist who likes creating painted still lifes, hand-made props, surrealist tableaux and animated films. Her clients include numerous fashion businesses such as Kate Spade, American Apparel and Russian Vogue.
