When we are in chaos and anxiety, the urge to do something becomes stronger. So to speak, the boredom of being locked inside early this year prompted this new photo book project, Still Life. In 2020, no matter where we are, we all experienced a similar but not the same predicament. When photographers are constrained by reality, or caught in a battle with boredom and anxiety, we couldn’t help it wonder, without the trigger points of taking photographs, where would their lens go? Will ‘photography’ still happen?
We invited photographers we’ve been closely watching. In this project, an intervention has been imposed onto their freely selected topics, each photographer needs to create their stories indoors using limited equipment. As a result, the photographic collective Still Life includes 13 works from different photographers around the world.
The title Still Life comes from the principal genre of Western art, which was endowed with a beautiful meaning — life is still. Here in this book, ‘Still Life’ is considered as a metaphor for the state of continuing living in this predicament — in the context of the pandemic, a relatively still state we are all in.
Photographers: Antje Peters, Bobby Doherty, Caroline Tompkins, Charles Negre, David Brandon Geeting, Geray Mena, Harley Weir, Makoto Oono, Peng Ke, Sergiy Barchuk, Sophie Tianxin Chen, Thomas Albdorf, Xiaopeng Yuan.

“Every time I order from Son of Rand, it feels like stepping into a beautifully curated dream. The pieces always spark conversation, and even the packaging feels intentional and special. I’ve started gifting their finds to friends, and they always love them."
Alex G.
"Son of Rand has completely changed how I think about my home. It’s not just shopping. It’s discovering objects that make you feel something. My house has so much more soul because of y'all."

"Finding Son of Rand was like stumbling upon a secret world of design I didn’t know I needed. Everything they carry has a story and a point of view. It’s where I go when I want to be inspired, or when I need the perfect gift that actually means something."
Kelly R.
Son of Rand is my happy place online. Their curation is bold, warm, and playful - like design should be. It’s where I find pieces that make my space feel like me, and I always end up adding one or two extra things I didn’t even know I wanted."
Meet the Maker
Considered one of Denmark’s greatest and most influential architects, Mogens Lassen pioneered Danish Functionalism, taking his cues from Bauhaus sensibilities. His interior designs are a natural continuation of his architectural approach and add energy and atmosphere to everyday living spaces and tasks. From decorative objects to larger furniture designs, his designs delicately balance presence without drawing undue attention, finding their natural place in any space.
