About this item: A soft light bathes corn husks transforming them as if by magic into pearl treasures in this admirable photograph by Santiago Arias. "With this photograph I’m presenting corn as a reference to Mexico's heritage and how it has influence diverse aspects of our culture and history. Corn has nourished us through the centuries – it was considered divine food in pre-Hispanic times," comments Arias. With a masterful use of light, he presents a photograph that recalls the chiaroscuro techniques of past masters. Arrives mounted on a gator board. - Arrives unframed - Limited edition - Mounted on foam core - Signed by the artist About our Artist: "My fascination with images allows me to explore and interact with different realities. I constantly reinvent myself through this medium as I acquire the essence of what I capture through my photographs. Photography is always a reciprocal process - it is creative, intuitive and enriching. My inspiration comes from my surroundings; nature is however, my muse. The same can be said about the people I photograph - I am inspired by people who are eccentric and extravagant. My training began at a very young age, through cinema and illustration. That's how I began to understand the basic principles of intention, lighting and composition. It would be difficult to name just one person as my teacher as I have learned from a great number of people including teachers, colleagues, family, friends, and strangers. Life experiences also offer important lessons in this profession."
