thx for the comments everyone :)

spectrum got it right. it's actually a hook screwed into the wall. this was shot with a flashlight for lighting that made a circular light ring around the hook. by inverting the image, the "hole" appeared behind the hook. next i swapped the colours in PS and ended up with a skin-coloured hook and bg which seems to resemble some part of the anatomy. (e.g. an ear, or a bent finger). i called it photographic freakism because i wanted to explore how a juxtaposition of textures on everyday objects would make the viewer uneasy. something along the lines of the "fur-lined teacup". an artistic tendency towards surrealism i think? (need Azhou to confirm this).

NICE NICE NICE NICE NICE! lol I also first glance thot it's a human skin ( cognitive theory? )
Whatever it is, i like it =p

mmm surrealism ah... me cannot confirm hor, try to ask stereobox. We still not agree on what surrealism is T____T my idea of surrealism only 'something beyond realism' and I think he has a bigger picture about it. I'm not really into it so not really sure ( perhaps his idea more appriorate since he actually studied about it and I just have a glance of it )
*now that few people can imagine, how boring dating AngelZhou could be if she keep on nitpick whenever you start to talk about art or psychology - not to forget the usual school-is-suck speech*

I think Zaren is cute in some way. I mean... the way you interpret everything. So Zaren. ( I know sounds wrong lah but I couldnt find a better way to put it )
 

Nice hook!
actually i guess correct! but too late u already say its a hook...
:p

very nice idea to use the colour of skin.

i think the bird looks too small when compare with the street light...
any title for this shot? How about 'fly away'?

:sweat: maybe i was expecting too much~ XP

sori lah....my posting is too slow. :)
 

if the bird was Worker's Party and the lamp post was the P.A.P, it looks like the P.A.P's gonna smack the WP's butt :bsmilie:

sorry for being crude ;) Is this talk OB?

it's a great shot!

AFAIK, "Surrealism is a style in which fantastical visual imagery from the subconscious mind is used with no intention of making the work logically comprehensible."

hahaha.....i'm glad u like my "interpretations". :bsmilie:

thx rheo :)
 

nice catch! i personally feel that the picture would be fantastic if there was no streetlamp in it... just a lot of blue blue sky and the little bird somehwere at the top of the frame~ :D hehe just an idea, other than that... its a very very good shot!
 

k... OT a bit. gonna watch "GOAL!" heehee the newcastle guy movie

thx choo...

'fly away' is good. i thought also of 'ascent'.

:)
 

I could not understand the one with the hook... surrealism is too "chiam" for me I guess...:sweat:
Like the lamp post and the bird...:thumbsup:

thx nate, that's a good suggestion! somehow i like the inclusion of the streetlamp here, i guess to me it leads the viewer from the ground up to the lamp, which is the launching pad for the bird to take off. :)
