Exploring blur. I think I overuse this technique. Do I?
Probably.
It's dark, isolated and the colours are muted and cold. This was the part where I wanted to explore common stereotypes and perceptions. Does this person make you feel uneasy? Is it quite unnerving that her form is hard to make out? I prefer the head on portraits, as they are harder to escape from. You feel like you do not want to be caught in this moment watching this figure, and it seems that the figure in the image does not want to be there either.

ReplyDeleteYes, I do feel uneasy but its not necessarily the person or what the person is doing. Its the feeling that I am searching to find this person in the tangle, in the shadows, in the darkness and the uncomfortable nature that I feel I think is more of a sense of frustration about not being able to find them, help them, see their face to read their trauma. You are right that it is hard to escape particularly from the middle one as we are not able to find a face, a soul.
