Well... To my mind, this is full-blown romanticism, for in it can be defined in terms of light and dark, cloud and shadow, deep and open space, in which the beauty is the unnatural, dark, quivering colours and it makes me feel I am looking at the world from the bottom of my heart.

I'll give you a not-specific-only-about-this-picture comment if you don't mind... In fact, it's more about all those lines you've posted recently (should I call them a series ?)... I used to think that it's usually quite hard to make an interesting abstract composition with casual or candid random things but I think you're doing it quite well and, what's probably more important to me in that particular case, with consistency... And about this one in particular now, it's quite strange because although I recognize what it is and I perfectly know what's it's meant to be, it's giving me a feeling of danger like I never have had before... Will I eventualy still feel like this whenever I come accross one of these ? I hope not !!

Because the eye moves, jumps and slides from one musician to another in a way similar to music, the rythm in this picture is really strong and pleasant, and it seems to me that variety obviously gives this photography interest and vitality, as the musicians are kinda repeated with enough changes or differences to enhance each other...

Getting away is the key... When you're plopped in the middle of nowhere with complete strangers or ven alone, it brings out all your most positive and negative points. You just have to deal - and put the rest of your life in perspective.

Here's an idea expressed with a mature agility in which classical forms are not just used, but understood in a very personal way where the guiding principle is always lightness despite the heavy look... Confronting our demons !

Because deconstruction is an attack on the very existence of theories and conceptual systems, its exposition here purposely resists logical definitions and explanations, opting instead for alinear presentations based on extensive wordplay and puns. As a deconstructionist, because I think that's what you are, you tend to concentrate on close readings of particular texts, focusing on how these texts refer to other texts... In a few words : You Rock !!

I've had a quick look at your portfolio and what I like is this capacity you have, often too rare, to invest in the flow of time. The subjects you choose seem to become manners of living, disintegrate as such to become spaces in which we define ourselves and which, by their sincerity, leads us to a comprehension of the critical situations within which we are confronted. I feel like your are the ferryman taking us to a world you're looking at without disturbing it ; us to whom it gives this feeling of the right tonality of a glance to relate to the differences.

Out of the cave but still in the dark... Does it mean that the light exists in the soul already ; and that just as the eye was unable to turn from darkness to light without the whole body, so too the instrument of exploration can only be the capture of a movement when the whole soul is turning from the world of becoming into that of being and learn by degrees to endure the sight of being...

Well... Striking lips and intense eyes : that face is almost an anachronism ; a pale, large-featured individual : a peculiar, an interesting countenance, of singularly mild yet ardent expression... Very interesting indeed !

How can ordinary words from everyday life describe the deeper dimension within nature's ever amazement ?
Looking closely.
The world is flowering

Although it is possible to approach photography from various angles, here I would like to consider it from the perspective of the nature of imagery. That is to say, it is in the sphere of our deepest feelings that the question "What is imagery ?" becomes a fundamental issue. Ordinarily we think that imagery is treated carefully in areas such as photography or painting. The photography arts give expression to all things through imagery, giving them preference over colors or lights. Yet, in the painting arts, imagery do not reach the point of being able to lay bare the deepest foundations of photography. This is because photography presupposes the existence of imagery.
So, I believe that you are describing the state of our everyday life, in which we cannot get beyond the sign-like imagery that we use within it.

"This is what is sad when one contemplates human life, that so many live out their lives in quiet lostness . . . they live, as it were, away from themselves and vanish like shadows. Their immortal souls are blown away, and they are not disquieted by the question of its immortality, because they are already disintegrated before they die."

Speaking of sobriety to the mundane masses not knowing what they miss in their oblivious existence... It's the unliving of life that leads to death, as the worst kind of failure !!!

As Daisaku Ikeda writes, "When our determination changes, everything will begin to move in the direction we desire. The moment we resolve to be victorious, every nerve and fiber in our being will immediately orient itself toward our success. On the other hand, if we think, 'This is never going to work out,' then at that instant, every cell in our being will be deflated and give up the fight."
Don't give up...

What a compounded soul she seems to offer, swimming against the tide of reason and time, like a gift from our Gods that will bring the deads to life and warm even the coldest spirit.

This is an extremely interesting concept and I feel just like Ra, gradually passing through the twelve gates of night, arriving at last in the underworld where the dead tow his boat, and here we are, right before the emerging into light again.
