This is a
photograph by Alec Soth who is an American, contemporary photographer who does
many types of photographs from landscapes to couples in places he travels. He
is one of my favorite photographers and reminds me of my theme of coexistence
for senior seminar. The disco ball in the middle of a forest that we have no
notion of the location is fascinating to me. It inspires me to think outside of
the box by using photography as a extension of my creative capacity.
I believe that by using photography
in a way that is interesting visually, creative, and entertaining because of
its almost surreal image can be a route I may take. This can be perceived many ways but in my
mind, I see the disco ball as “man,” and the forest its hanging in as nature, our
environment and world. This concept is
one that is abstract in reality, but that is the path I am inspired to do when
I look at some of alec soth’s contemporary photography.
