A Rare Abstract Photograph!

Abstract photo. July, 2019.

Abstract photography appeals to me. Conceptually, I like the contradiction between the idea of a photograph, which is supposed to represent concrete reality, and turning it into something unrecognizable, yet still visually appealing.

I don’t get many chances to shoot abstract photos, but I love it when I happen to catch a “winner.” It also forces me to experiment with new processing techniques to find the most visually compelling image that I can.

I could tell you what this is a photograph of, but that would defeat the purpose, don’t you think? Much better to say, it’s whatever you want it to be!

New photos with Amy Walek

Photographs

Amy Walek is a friend of mine who recently started modelling for local photographers. She often helps out at our experimental Töad Meädow Arts Collective and attended our big annual party that we threw in July, 2019.

At the party, we had a fire sculpture that I made way back in 2011. It’s called Untitled Fire and it has rustled some jimmies at various Burning Man-affiliated festivals because some people considered it anti-Christian. Other people objected for other reasons. A lot of people have found a lot of reasons to dislike Untitled Fire, but I think it looks pretty damn metal, if you ask me.

Anyways, Amy was dressed in a killer outfit and looking great, so we did an impromptu photoshoot using the firelight from the sculpture to light the pictures.

I think my favorite among these is the one with her silhouetted against the light from the sculpture. I haven’t posted it to my Instagram because I think it would look shitty on a tiny phone screen, but it looks cool as hell on a computer monitor and I bet would look really good printed on photo paper.

It’s reasons like this that you should join my mailing list for newest art. I take a lot of pictures that are very good, but that I do not post to social media for various reasons.

Woman's upper body

I’ve taken pictures of a lot of breasts, but this ranks in the top 1% of my favorites. Everything about it says “soft and feminine” to me. The soft focus, gently swooping hair, contours of the body, etc..

To me, it’s a sort of hybrid photo between a human body and a landscape picture. Anyways, I hope you like it.
