A series of funny photographs in a minimalist style makes you take a fresh look at such a traditional direction in the visual arts as still life. Original compositions composed of the most ordinary objects show the viewer a different, artistic side of things.
David Brandon Gittin (David Brandon Geeting) Is a photographer who, through his colorful and laconic works, invites the viewer to look at the most ordinary objects from a different angle, to see aesthetic beauty in seemingly simple things. Colorful yet laconic still lifes show dishes, food, building materials and other unexpected objects in all their glory.
David was born and raised in the suburbs of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The young photographer has a BFA in photography from the School of Fine Arts. Presently David Brandon Gittin (David Brandon Geeting) lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.

Household men in women's clothing in a project by photographer Jon Uriarte
Gender roles are very blurred today. More and more men remain “on the farm” or go on parental leave, while women are happy to build their careers and earn more than their spouses. Photographer Jon Uriarte decided to investigate this factor, and at the same time create a collection where men would be depicted against the background of the home environment in the clothes of their girlfriends. The idea turned out to be so successful that after a few weeks young people began to call the photographer with an offer to accept
