Still Life by Martin Klimas - Neatorama

Martin Klimas hails from Germany and takes fantastic "still life" photos. He drops clay figurines from the same height in complete darkness with the camera lens open. When the figurine hits the ground, the sound of the impact triggers the lights to go on for a fraction of a second.

I doubt he dropped any priceless artifacts. Probably got someone to make a bunch for him.

I wonder how many hundreds of these figurines he destroyed to get the few that actually look good?

For someone interested in ceramics, it is almost a shame that so many of these old ceramic pieces have to be destroyed. Admittedly, they look like the kind one would find at a cheap antique sale....but they could be very important pieces.

Who knew that a pinhole camera and a ClapperÂ® could make such cool art?

I'd heard that the combined saliva, urine and feces of hundreds of cats over a period of 200 years does wonders for the patina of an oil painting.

Gotta hand it to those Russkis. Their space station stayed up longer than ours, but they can't invent a mousetrap.
