The pair's Amsterdam studio acts as a laboratory for their beautiful experiments in conceptualizing composition in which they use products as building blocks to create photographic illusions of depth, light, and color. Join Gestalten.tv for a visit and hear from Maurice Scheltens and Liesbeth Abbenes about their work and approach to still life. </p>
