Last Suppers / Last Meal
12 August 2009, 19.05 | Posted in Art | No comments »
A photo series by James Reynolds, Last Suppers documents Death Row prisoners’ last meals before execution (above).
The same theme done differently, Jonathon Kamboris created a similar series (below). He comments “…prisoners waiting to die choose their last meal for different reasons. Some choose from past memories while others feast on what they crave at the moment. Such fascinating details surrounding the final hours before being put to death are a matter of public record and are the inspiration of this series of photographs.”
Notice the artists different takes on the same meals.
Both series are gripping.
