Can you say that a photograph is 'still' in its beauty ? {seems a sort of obvious observation} hmmm...maybe 'quiet' is a better word. Either way, the interior and still life work of photographer, roland bello's mesmerizes, with the quiet dignity of spaces.

Love this seeing the accessories was inspiration.
Beautiful. I think the newspaper wall spaces have to be my favorite.

I kinda want to grab my Dad's Sunday NYTIMES and start pasting it up on the walls! :)

Well, I must say I love his collections. The newspaper wallpaper reminds me of "A Brilliant Mind" though. Interesting. It looks like a set, not an apartment.

Shelves lined and filled top to bottom with jello molds, now that is in now way remaining 'still'.

I can feel the vibration from here.
Thank you so much for introducing us to Roland Bello! Super!

Love the photos of the antique jelly molds. But I have difficulty with some of the other spaces: perhaps it is the intimacy and emotion that find expression in the photograph. Thanks for making me ponder.

I think you're right- some of these photos are probably sets,rather than actual rooms.

And, Mary, I agree, they have a sort of non intimate feel to them. But at the same time there's such a confidence that, to me at least, they don't at all feel void of emotion.

I love that his photography evokes an off putting feel. It's so easy to go to the happy, catalogue place. But a bit more of a stretch to create 'moodiness' while hanging on to beauty.

That squirrel in a jar? *gasp*

Love this.
I can't reconcile the (nicely) cluttered spaces with the more sparse, but it all looks like my house, so I like it.
