Contrasting Objects

May 19, 2019  •  Leave a Comment

From time to time you come across contrasting object that just evoke questions. At other times this juxtaposition can be humorous. When I look at this image I can see an add for skin lotion. What goes through your mind as you look at this image?

On the one hand we have this dry harsh desert scene which is visible through the window. The sun is threatening a warning. There is a sea of sand everywhere. The building has already surcomed. On the other hand there is the bath, perhaps a reminder of water, of life and sustenance. This is a scene filled with contrasting objects.

          It is an interesting scene filled also with triangles. The ceiling forms a triangle and so does the sand. There is an implied triangle between the front of the image and the two walls forming two sides of this triangle. Lastly, the door, the sun and the bath also form a triagle. This is another scene where I deliberately used a sunstar to help drive the concept home.

          When you find constracting objects start looking for ways to exploit them to create an image that tells a story or asks questions.
