Slipping Away

I finished this piece today. Its a two part wall piece made of altered silver platters and embroidery. I really need to learn how to take photos of wall pieces. My pictures are terrible but I don't know how to do it! Help anyone? Its really annoying because the platters have a mirror like polish, and everything reflects in them!
Anyway, I am happy with how the piece turned out. Its very technically simple, but I think it really has a lot to say to the viewer. What do you see in it?

  2. Do you have a big light box or anything that would diffuse the light enough to help with the glare?
    You can get large diffusion panels and/or build your own light box using wood/a big cardboard box, and fabric.
