This image, “Studio Tools,” is the first in a series of four film stills featured at the 2021 Isetan exhibition in Tokyo, Japan. The stills originate from the 1955 film, “House: After Five Years of Living,” which illustrated details of Charles and Ray Eames’ Case Study House through an experimental method of turning still images into moving film.
In their newly built home, the Eameses were able to find the rare sweet spot between work and play in their lives. In the aptly named Eames House, they built the studio that would become an important staple of their lives — the studio would frequently double as a film set to their office. This simple image of a set of studio tools is a symbolic representation of the quiet intimacy of everyday items.
This image is now being released for the first time as a print for public purchase. Limited run of 100 numbered copies with Certificateof Authenticity.
Photograph is printed on 100% Cotton Rag, matted, dust sealed and framed with a thin, black, metal Neilsen frame.
