Starless
Starless is a first attempt to break the rules of composition realistic and therefore also with the editing. . I have given a series of forty photographs almost cinematic. The photos here are the frames of a film ever made, or, if made, broken into isolated sections, each of which I extracted from a photo. Images are chasing one after another similarity or formal opposition, talk to them about themselves. The end result was fractured and non-linear language.
I took pictures and then selected based on emotional urgency, intensity and following their mutual matches. While not explain what was inexplicable to myself, I preferred to entrust the disturbance of vision, instinct. clear vision that you get in front of the busy or social reportage.
Starless is the theme of the night. The sky is starless (starless) when hope is lost, when we are exiled from joy. It 'a moment of lack of light, physical and temperamental. The night, therefore it can also refer to a mood, depression, mourning.
But there is also a positive side to its night. This, at the end of the day (the hours devoted to social practices and front) down and often provokes an internal reconciliation. Disappears when clear direction existential many values paradoxically become more comprehensible and communicate with their opposites. |
