I MISS THE TREATS

I haven’t had a trick-or-treater at my door in years.  I miss seeing cute kids in even cuter costumes.  I miss giving out chocolate, knowing it may be the only candy that doesn’t get thrown away later. But alas, I live in the mountains.  Not many people live in neighborhoods, and those that do have an “organized community,” don’t have walkable streets.  We buy 4-wheel drive vehicles because we actually need them.  Our kids go downtown and trick or treat on Main Street.  No joke. So, I have to get in the spirit other ways.  I think this next Call is a great start.  Take a look…

Faces

 

An enduring fascination with the photographic portrait.

Each portrait reveals something of the sitter, the photographer and also of us as viewers. No one image can muster a whole and complete being, no matter how much we believe this could be so. This is the part of the photograph we create in our imagination, we fill in each crack and hole with a sort of personalized reasoning. And all these unknowns in the midst of true transparency.

Eye contact is made or retracted, body language boastful, reticent or indecipherable. Facial expressions can be hard at work or numbly slack. While subjects have a power over these photographic outcomes, it is the choice of the photographer to coax or mute said expressions for their artistic offering.

Learn more about the Darkroom Gallery online! Submit work depicting people, selves, faces. People that baffle us with their complexities, personalities or simplistic nature. Make us question how this person existed at this particular place and time.
