This minimalist still life, while appearing simplistic, follows the rules of poetry to evoke a rich set of emotions: using an absolute economy of elements, each with a strong meaning and associated set of memories and emotions for each observer, the piece constructs a portrait of a scene composed entirely from the viewer's own experience. Car keys evoke travel, green grass suggests a cool Spring day, a bag and bottle of water bring to mind a rustic but rich meal, and the appearance of a sneaker in the corner suggests comfortable companionship.
