A striking still-life composition featuring a gold and diamond eye brooch at the center of shattered reflective glass, surrounded by vibrant, scattered makeup pigments in electric blues, pinks, and yellows. A bold lipstick and a sleek mascara applicator frame the scene, contrasting elegance with destruction. The brooch’s eye stares outward, evoking themes of surveillance, mysticism, and beauty as power. The interplay of color, texture, and form nods to surrealist photography, blending high fashion aesthetics with esoteric symbolism. Shot on Kodak Portra 160, developed with Cinestill C41, medium format 120 film. Photographed by Jesse Jacques.

Cosmic Egg by Jesse Jacques: In this sublime still life, professional photographer Jesse Jacques captures a brown egg seemingly suspended in the void, enveloped by delicate metallic rings that echo the majestic rings of Saturn. This visual allegory invokes the ancient motif of the cosmic egg, a symbol of the universe's inception found in diverse mythologies. The yolk beneath, spread with meticulous softness, alludes to the primordial essence of creation. Executed on Fuji Provia Large Format Film with a Sinar 4x5 camera, Jacques' composition masterfully intertwines abstract geometry with profound cosmic and historical symbolism.
