The Meeting # (bit more resolved)
The Meeting is now beginning to resolve to some sort of conclusion that isn’t the bin.
Playing around has granted me new perspective – I can see some potential. In the top photo image (1) I’ve used fluorescent plastic overlay to exaggerate the participant’s facial interactions. Next I will print out the series proper.
The yellow house paint in image 2 adds a tastey painterly quality but hides the environment which in retrospect is important to the scene. A thinner paint application would be an option.
I’ve blacked out the figures in marker here (3); although their identities are hidden, their body language is clear.
The bottom photo collage pleases me (4). I’ve toyed with the idea of creating three new larger pieces with just the heads alone; one in a bubble shape, another in chronological order and finally one in the form of a picture chart.
You can see how much I’ve skirted around the original issue. I completely forgot what I had intended to do in the first place, I lost clarity on my own subject.
It’s taking time to decide what works and what doesn’t: – A blog grants a little distance to the work. The images get a fresh pair of eyes, a new perspective.
