Fork in the Refrigerator Possibly 1975 - 2000

"Fork in the Refrigerator" is a black and white photograph by American artist James Casebere, created sometime between 1975 and 2000. The photograph depicts a miniature kitchen scene constructed entirely of paper and cardboard. A large fork is placed in the middle of the scene, leaning against a refrigerator. The photograph is a playful and humorous commentary on the domestic sphere and the everyday objects that populate it. The use of miniature models and black and white photography further emphasizes the surreal and dreamlike qualities of the image. This work can be categorized as conceptual photography and model making, as the artist focuses on the creation of a surreal environment and the meaning behind it.
