Challenging Truth and Reality
This is the image I choose for the assignment. I was drawn to this image because here we see a man being pulled away by a shadow, possibly off to a distant land or simply away from his troubles. This photo was found on Flickr and the artist leaves it open for interpretation but I feel like it challenges truth and reality in the perception of how its viewed
I really enjoy this shot. After looking at it a few times over, I wonder if its not that the subject is being pulled away by his shadow, but that he is trying to restrain his shadow. Perhaps a visual interpretation of quelling ones inner demons, it looks to me as if he is trying to contain a part of himself. Definitely a darker image.
