Alexander Diaz has done a series on his mother’s eccentric objects that dominate her life called, “Still Lifes From My Mother’s House.”

“For me, these still lifes are layered in meaning and history and go beyond mere decorations. Her arrangements, like any successful fabricated still life throughout art history, are thought provoking and cleverly juxtaposed. These still lifes are not only informative of an individual, they are also testaments of a culture that is based on consumption.” –Diaz
