Of course, large-scale panoramic photos are great, but, like connoisseurs of computer games, many photographers are subject to a love of small details. Imke Klee, a photographer and stylist from Germany, photographs just a table with objects, but not everything is so simple - the objects in their combination create a certain color scheme that turns the mess on the table into perfection of style.

It would seem that this is another idea - to photograph objects! After all, it is much more interesting to photograph something alive - a city, a person, nature. However, if we recall, say, the still life of Fabrice Foylet, it becomes clear that amazing works are born from this idea, with a high-quality performance.

Imke Klee was born in northern Germany and now lives and works at various times in Paris and Bremen. She came to her current profession in the usual proven way - in childhood she was very fond of paintings, design, handicrafts and, not wanting to abandon her interests, she entered first at the Institute of Applied Sciences in Krefeld, then at the Institute of Arts in Bremen. After graduating from all this, in 2007 she becomes a photographer, stylist, studies iconography and works in Paris for the trend - analyst Li Edelkoort and, of course, is engaged in her own projects. In addition, she teaches at the Bremen Institute, where she studied herself.

Looking at the work of Imke Klee, one cannot fail to notice her subtle sense of style - after all, not every artist will guess to combine a gold purse, a few coins, advertising brochures, a polaroid photo, buttons and a bunch of other objects, creating a perfect color scheme as a result. Not a single superfluous item!
