Be creative in your own way
I found the quotes I have been posting over the last few days from Guy Tal’s book interesting, but it dawned it me that there was some strong connections with human politics, especially the references to the ‘Iron Law’, and maybe, I have decided, spending time on thinking about the relationship between the individual and organisations is energy sapping.
My Landscape from my Bed
I took delivery of a Leica 45mm f2.8 macro for my Panasonic G9 yesterday, and from the landscape of my bed took a few images: the rope, the tissue, and the bathroom window. I kind of like the images, but I am not sure why.
Jesse Alexander, in his book ‘Perspectives on Place’ quotes David Bate:
“Landscape . . . can be seen, as it was in nineteenth-century debates, as a general name forsubstances—it can mean bricks and mortar, leaves and fields, the desert, automobiles on a street, overcast or sunny skies, rural and suburban trees, concrete architecture, ghettos, a seascape at night, a seaside resort, the post-conflict rubble of a war-torn city, a touristresort, industrial spaces, interiors or panoramic views. “Landscape” is not all things to all people, but a highly differentiated discourse on representing space” (David Bate: Key Concepts)
Can my bed be accepted as a landscape?
When I point my camera from inside the bed what am I photographing?
