Helga Steppan
Mar. 8th, 2008 04:51 pmThis is really interesting. Kind of old, though.
This artist, Helga Steppan, separated her belongings by color and photographed them. It makes me wonder if she filtered the results a little: there seems to be a sameness of shade between them, as if a specific reddish cast was applied to the "red" stuff, and so on. It also seems like the whole concept was tied together by the backdrops, which are all painted the appropriate color. Most people won't have that at home.
I'm surprised she had so many yellow things; most people who wear those shades of pink, red, and blue can't wear much yellow. (It looks horrible on me and I tend to try to avoid it, even in products. Except for products with giraffes on them. Then it's OK... proving the maxim, "Everything is better with giraffes.")
By the way, I'm snowed in today... quite literally. We have to open the door every hour just to keep the drifting snow from trapping us in the house. Pics later maybe, for friends.
