In this “still life capture with a twist”, German photographer Holger Niehaus provides his take on the classic bowl of fruit image; stripping fruits of their skin and removing the bowl entirely.

Art Daily has a great write-up of the artist’s work which centers around manipulated versions of classic still life imagery.

Niehaus studied at the AKI Academy of Art and Design in Enschede, and since graduating in 2002 has exhibited his work in Amsterdam, Berlin, Hamburg and Paris. His photographs have also been published in the NRC Handelsblad newspaper, Kunstbeeld and several international art journals. He is represented by Van Zoetendaal.
