I shared the reaction of  mariuca quite closely. I didn't feel any convincing connection with the title 'depression' (not that I need to, in order to appreciate your photographs). Some held my attention longer than others.
The person with shadow is really quite excellent; it's remarkable how much more complex the shadow makes the viewer's reaction to the person.. .the feeling I got was that either the person or the photographer was saying, "You don't know me. You don't know what I think; what I feel." It's a sobering lesson for the viewer prone to over-hasty dismissal (e.g. me). It's also amazingly Picasso-like! The form and the lines (especially the shoulder line), the posture, the tilt and rendering of the head; it's all pure PP.
But the most interesting picture in the essay is this one:
That one is worth following somewhere, so if you ever felt moved to pursue that thread I'd be an excited follower.
Thank you.

Interestingly enough you did not post on your portfolio the first image that I saw on your link for this essay. I don't miss it since these are the most powerful ones.
They are highly introspective. Each one formulates another question and asks for some explanation. I do not associate any with the title you gave your essay but this is a minor thing. You asked yourself a few important things and you only will generate an answer.
I feel like you will need to elaborate more on each image, to continue each thread, each idea. I look forward to it.
My favorites are the least "abstract" pictures where I can recognize your unique way of looking and processing: this picture, #2 the little bear and #3 that could be titled "who are we, where are we goingâ€Â¦."
You continuously strive for more ways in your photography and I salute you for this. |
