Golden Apple of the Sun animates the quotidian elements of Cole’s kitchen countertop in unposed meditations of color and form captured during a perilous 5-week period. This tapestry of image and text exposes the power of everyday objects to reflect the prismatic spaces we hold during our brief and precious life.
In this conversation, Teju Cole discusses, among other things:
Still life images as biography
Disappointing expectations
Postponing reaction
#nofilter
Dead bird syndrome
Incorporating accidents
Positioning and modifications imposed by ethnocentricity
Translucence and opacity
Being difficult
Listening foremost to one’s self
Going your own way
