The reason this image was selected is for the very same reason Kirk speaks about below. You can appreciate the unusual approach to capturing the essence of this handmade scarf and how it might relate to the person wearing it. It’s odd, confusing, but has many easy concepts associated with it. Here’s a few….flexible, blinded, self absorbed, restraint, trapped, narcism, confined.
Kirk explains: When I took this image I wanted to show a private moment between artist and object. In this case a handmade circle scarf. We were shooting in an alley in overcast light and I thought that lining up the elements of the photo in this way created an interesting geometry. There is always a way to step back from every shoot and find something unusual. I believe you can find something unique in any situation.
