This is the beginning of a new themed set I'm working on. I went to an Army surplus store an found a gas mask and some other props to use in these photos.
Why 'Damage Control'??
Well, I wish there were some super clever reason why I'm calling it that...and, who knows, by the time I've completed this project, the photos may allude to some deeper subconscious meaning that even I didn't see in the beginning. For now, though, it's simpler than all that. During my second visit to the Army surplus store I found a red paperback manual that says in black official looking letters: Damage Control. I thought it was a good and fitting title for this series. That is all. :)
So, what is going on here? I'm experimenting, really. I want to do something in earthy tones with red accents. I like the internal feeling I get when I see the color red...it's my favorite color, for some reason. I read somewhere a quote that states:
"Red is the color of PASSION. People either love it, or they hate it. There is no in-between."
There's only one model in the first set (my friend Jacqueline, again) creating a sense of loneliness perhaps...or the scene from simply, her perspective. I think there's an air of mystery to her thoughts as you view her in these photos, and it's that ambiguity that I'm trying to achieve by utilizing such a versatile color scheme.
I would like to raise questions in the viewer's mind. I want the red to ignite some spark inside, as you look upon these photos, and hopefully you'll be able to put into words the way I cannot.
As a primarily visual person, I often find myself thinking in images more than words. Like most people, however, I have trouble deciphering those thoughts and finding more than a vague understanding of what my psyche is actually telling me.
So, comment wherever you feel! :)
This particular photo is the only one in black and white, so far. There's something about the fact that she's trying to smell the flowers through the gas mask hat strikes me as ironic.
Perhaps the thought that, in the future, this may be an everyday image to behold.....
A great deal of my art is turning ideas into tangible images and then analyzing them afterward, to better understand my scattered thought process. :)
To some degree, as well, I must admit, I am experimenting with Photoshop, too. I have no formal training in the usage of that particular photo editor, and I enjoy learning through trial and error...again, please do let me know what you think!! :)
You can certainly expect to see more in this series very soon!
Enjoy!!
