In this episode, I sit down with Cole to discuss a photo he took of some fruit from the market. Despite the fact that years have passed since he took the photo, and the physical fruits have long since disappeared, they do continue to exist in one place—Cole's twisted mind.
In Cole's imagination, the fruits may have taken on new, surrealistic qualities, with exaggerated colours and distorted shapes. Perhaps they have even taken on a sinister quality, becoming symbols of decay and death.
Through the lens of Cole's camera and his creative vision, the fruits have been transformed into something more than mere objects—they have become part of Cole's personal mythology, infused with his utterly twisted perspective and worldview. While they may no longer exist in the physical world, they remain as a powerful symbol in Cole's psyche. In this way, the photo becomes a reflection not only of the transience of life, but also of the power of the human imagination to transform and transcend the limitations of reality.
