"Square pineapple (diagonal)" is a photograph of a pineapple on a pineapple plant. For this work, I photographed the pineapple from diagonally above. The leaves run like a star with the tips coming from the upper-left corner.
The focus of the photo is on some of the top leaves of the pineapple and from there, everything further behind becomes blurred. (I chose a very low focus when taking this picture, so only a small part is in focus.) This creates depth in the work and makes it quieter. (If you zoom in on the work, you can clearly see where the sharpness is)
Associations: This work reminds me of Hawaii, tropics, tropical fruit, sun, heat, summer but also cooking, food and sweet.
This work could hang beautifully as wall decoration in, for example, the waiting room, dining room, kitchen, restaurant or of course just above the sofa!
