I like it in conjunction with the interpretation; I find it especially funny that the passage is talking about transforming the self, but that the old self being shedded in the photo is the same as the new self coming through. Plus, of course, the hollowness inherent in dolls.
"I really like both shot's, though Justin E spoke to me more. I really like the doll as a flower and can be taken as the many facets of a personality some deeply hidden behind other's unfolding them and journeying deeper as you become friends and perhaps lovers/in love."
I do agree with Tea and Jay. And this seems to demonstrate at least the narrator's thoughts of Justine and who she is or might be in the narrator's viewpoint.
Yet at the same time, the uncertainty and back and forth of the narrator shows well in the second one very well.
Justin fills the screen, the figure/ground, with the immensity of her impact on the character who ruminates about her. The fullness of her image and her internal world of existential coping is both as haunting as the bifurcated doll figure in her frontal presence. You have captured the strength and the exotic reality of Justin. Great photographic imagination ! Bill
Welcome to the ZU. This site is now dedicated to my portraiture and commissions. OK, maybe a few crazy extra's now and then but mostly fine portraits of characters that come in and out of my life. My fine art work can now be found at, William Zuback photographs.
