Title

Description

At upper left are the flowers of this still life’s putative title, but it still doesn’t account for the majority of Preachen’s composition. Their bright orange petals activate several objects in a similar tone (fruit, a piece of fabric, a painted ceramic dish); their green leaves are echoed in another piece of fabric, a pear, and painted leaves on the ceramic objects. But arguably the most formative arrangement is modular, grouping the objects in cells that resemble a honeycomb. Wrinkles in the fabric are geometrical rather than naturalistic.
